The Remembrance Ballad - Atreyu

These days are closing in

The end has become apparent

We're only here for so long

Will anyone remember my name

When time has washed away

The dust of my ashes

When my head rests in a velvet lined casket

What's out there

What is my eternal fate

It only just recently hit me

That this life is just a state

Mortality fading

Like the innocence of love

I'm scared to death

Of what's to become

Of my immortal soul

Of this eternal flame will you remember

Will your heart sing with pain

Who calls out my name (my name)

Who can tell me what happens

When my eyes close for the last time?(my eyes close)

Does it all simply end in a blanket of darkness (does it all)

What of my soul what of my soul

All those things you couldn't say you should have said

All those “I love you”s lost

Weigh more like lead on your chest

All those things you couldn't say you should have said

All those “I love you”s lost

Weigh more like lead on your chest

Of my immortal soul

Of this eternal flame will you remember

Will your heart sing with pain

Who calls out my name (my name)

Who can tell me what happens

When my eyes close for the last time (my eyes close)

Does it all simply end (does it all)

In a blanket of darkness

What of my soul what of my soul

If I could take back all those misspent days

Every second of anger

I would wash my sins away

Who calls out my name (my name)

Who can tell me what happens

When my eyes close for the last time (my eyes close)

Does it all simply end (does it end)

In a blanket of darkness

What of my soul what of my soul

Who calls out my name (my name)

Who can tell me what happens

When my eyes close for the last time (my eyes close)

Does it all simply end (does it all)

In a blanket of darkness

What of my soul what of my soul
