Songtext Memento mori Wolves At The Gate

Memento mori

It's too late for me
Slipping closer to the bottom
In the traps of death, face to face
I dread what's coming

The light burns, a page turns
Another life that pains you
Just falls through the hourglass
Oh, we all know this pain

You could never go too far away
From the hands that hold our sorrows
You feel the walls closing in, but you are not alone

Dust into dust
Everyone has to feel the frailty of existence
Memento Mori
Reaching out to Heaven

It's too late to see
What's been lurking in the shadows
Feeling like nothing lives inside of tomorrow
All of my vision is blurry and gray

The light burns, a page turns
Another life that pains you
Just falls through the hourglass
Oh, we all know this pain

You could never go too far away
From the hands that hold our sorrows
You feel the walls closing in, but you are not alone
I've watched you fade alone (I've watched you fade alone)
Silence tears, my heart (You silence tears, my heart)
You feel the walls closing in, but you are not alone

We are a just vapors, dust into dust
Phantoms vanishing like smoke at night
Giver of my life, can you take away the sting of death
That's hanging over my head?
Head, head

Deathgrip on my throat
Never giving up it's edge
I'm reaching to heaven
Pray that I'm not too far away
