Stilled and Staring, Not of Life lyrics

In the night, asleep unguarded

They come to me as they once were

With eyes like dolls

Stilled and staring not of life

I see their faces once again

Their eyes of desperation and fear

Their grip on me as though to stay death

A last hope to cling to that mortal bond.

My blood soaked hands touch their mortality

Fingers that stick together with drying blood

That pours forth from this burdened temple

As the pall of eternity's claim covers their eyes

Lying there, staring up

Until the blinking ends

And a last thin breathe sighs in rattled response

A silence in the chaos has ceased a horrific pain

Their daily routined lives unknown

So then in this brief encounter

How can you measure their existance

In their most tremendous trial and loss

In the night, silent, dark, alone

Startled to the threshold of waking

Soaked in the sweat of an undying enigma

Stilled and staring not of life
