Grasp for Life Lyrics

The fields were green with blue skies above

We were laying in the grass, confessing our love

I recall her silken face as the sun was bright

A lonely tear of despair on her face as it turned white

She never knew that I am doomed

That within me is just death

She was blind to the obvious

Until her very onw last breath

So I turned to what I'm now

Not a human but much more

Into a creature of darkness

Like so many before

As ever when I grasp for life

Nothing stays in my hand

Nothing but a lifeless wasteland

For me to make a stand

As ever when I grasp for life

I feel it breaking apart

With nothing left but a silent heartbeat

Till death becomes an art

Now I know the day she died my soul has died with her

And all that's left is darkness - a darkness I can't bear

So i pace through the night without making amends

Forgiveness is illusion when the hunger never ends

As ever when I grasp for life

Nothing stays in my hand

Nothing but a lifeless wasteland

For me to make a stand

As ever when I grasp for life

I feel it breaking apart

With nothing left but a silent heartbeat

Till death becomes an art

As ever when I grasp for life

Nothing stays in my hand

Nothing but a lifeless wasteland

For me to make a stand

As ever when I grasp for life

I feel it breaking apart

With nothing left but a silent heartbeat

Till death becomes an art

That one last kiss

Was so long ago

That day she died

I can never let it go
