I will follow you into the dark I will follow you with all of my heart The scattering of ashes has begun These remnants of disease my mortal sin and so forever banished from the sun Where new life was once promised to begin My journey to be paved into my soul Untwining my perception seeking truth Obtaining missing links to become whole ascending far beyond blood bone and truth Watching you whither witnessing it all As time held your hand Tempting your grace Watching your beauty diminish in all is far to cruel for my frail heart to take So soul determined question me not why when living ladder years has lead despair Lassitudes of life have not eased with time appeased by only 2 coins for his fair To save my soul betwixing in this cell Transcend my mortal beauty asphodel I will follow you into the dark I will follow you with all of my heart
