Shattered Sanctum
(Music & Lyrics: E. Tapia)
Drowning in my sorrows, I descend into madness.
Helplessness takes hold of me, dragging me to the depths
Ever since that fateful day when life lost its meaning,
darkness swiftly crept in, ambushing my sanctum
Skies of grey brought by cold winds dissipated the heavens
The ray I had always known was forever taken
Nowhere to turn, nowhere to hid, the void in my soul consumes all of me
Shattered sanctum; destroyed, now it lies in ruins
Damaged beyond repair and overcome by despair
Tragedy dealt a fatal blow, leaving me in a world of woe
Trudging through the mire of grief in a reality that's beyond belief
Melancholy clutches me as I become a prisoner of sorrow
Lead: Stucky
Shattered sanctum; destroyed, now it lies in ruins
Writhing in pain, I am left with a soul so hollow
Lead: Tapia
Lead: Stucky
Day by day I slip away. I am going insane
Memories of what once was detract from my shattered heart
How I wish I could wake from this everlasting nightmare
Craving what can never be, slowly I deteriorate
Nowhere to turn, nowhere to hide, the void in my soul consumes all of me
Shattered sanctum; destroyed, now it lies in ruins
