Fate's Descent Lyrics - Quo Vadis

My body rests in a dark chamber 

As I am receiving final farewells 

A saddened silence fills the air 

The smell of flowers, the smell of death 

The latch is opened, my skin reflects the light 

A short prayer is recited in my honour 

Some take a step forward, their stares descend 

Looks of deception, looks of despair 

Some are faceless, some are caught in the moment 

Communication at light speed occurs 

faster than words can be expressed 

One-way telepathy provides the living souls 

a sense of presence when left alone 

A mental sketch is tattooed on their minds 

time to say their "adieux" arrives 

My vessel sealed, a cold breeze strikes the world beyond 

I am imprisioned from the world of light 

Some induce tears, hostage to emotion 

Looking from above, I can feel their pain 

... I will guide 

Purity resists, faith will overcome 

... I survive 

They forgive my sins, I can feel the peace 

... Of my life 

Looking through their souls 

Timeless sense of loss, overtaking thee 

... I will guide 

With a mere remorse, they will call to me 

... I survive 

Tell the secrets of an unforgotten past 

... Of my life 

Looking through my soul... 

Voiceless.. but present... 

Some can feel it, some ignore the forces 

As I descend into the depths of goodbyes 

The raining earth is bestowed upon my being 

As I watch over and comfort thee 

A last prayer in unison begins 

Forever lasting, words do not die 

Priceless balance 

"You feel I have abandoned you, but it is you who left me behind"
