The Dying Embers of Life Songtext
von The Raven Age

As I′m gazing out across the empty shoreline
There are many questions running through my mind
As the waves caress the rocks upon my island
I count the days until I feel them on my skin

Have I become the very one
The very man I hoped I'd never have to meet?
Look at me now, I′m here somehow
And I'm surrounded by the weeping of the sea

This cage that I call my home
Never ceases to oppress my sorry soul
The dying embers of life in me are gone
As I lay here, growing older

As the night begins to fall and day is fading
Tormented by the flickering of city lights
But when I lay my mind to rest, I dream of freedom
I hope I never have to open up my eyes


The damage done, all hope is gone
This place was built for people never to escape
Beyond these walls lies everything
I ever wanted, but for now I'll have to wait

This cage that I call my home
Never ceases to oppress my sorry soul
The dying embers of life in me are gone
As I lay here, growing older

Whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh

Whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh

This cage that I call my home
Never ceases to oppress my sorry soul
The dying embers of life in me are gone
As I lay here, growing older
