Hereafter Forgotten

Hereafter Forgotten (Collab with   Bleeding Demons à)

Through the macabre
Of darker night
The crime of pain
Has been sent free

It wasn't punishment seeked,
but a rare blessing beseached.
Contemplation with unknown beings,
led astray to relive old feelings.

From the winters mourn
To the cold beating of
the drum like heart
Only ever bled the pain

The ways of life had suddenly changed,
Distractions of the mind now rearranged.
Each path be far from truth prevailed,
Darkness left the echo's wailed.

In the inner eye of storm
Lay the calmness to behold
The truth longer blind
We have opened to new perspectives

Dreams now scattered upon the oceans waves,
once thought these feelings were part of agonising plays.
But within these memories live more than anything gained,
the platform of ultimate despair attained.

From the memories flow golden light
all of our wishes now becoming true
Happiness now regained
For us the brighter day is that of tomorrow

Soldered away beneath heaven's gate,
the time would come when none would wait.
Two names lie still in memory of that day,
"Hereafter forgotten" will be the last words to say.

    once thought these feelings were part of agonising plays.

    This was a great collab. you guy work well together. I could feel the emotions pouring out.

    Dreams now scattered upon the oceans waves,
    once thought these feelings were part of agonising plays.
    But within these memories live more than anything gained,
    the platform of ultimate despair attained.
