In The Vicinity of Death

As the years go by, and the lines on the skin become clear
I long for the ages passed, a deadend I couldn't forecast
The once harbored memories seem to fade out
Still the darkest of my thoughts I couldn't age without

Reversed is the order of nature
Roaming through the shades of yesterday
Slowly entering the fields of gray

In the vicinity of death, The past I repent
Haunting failures, More than the eyes could meet.

Roaming through the shades of yesterday
Slowly entering the fields of gray

In silence, I fade
Drowned in sorrow
The shadows, cascade
Evading hopes of tomorrow

I've roamed through the shades of the past days
and here I reside, in the fields of gray
Death I embrace
