This Dreadful Emptiness Lyrics by Austere

To Lay Like Old Ashes

2009

Oh, such a breathtaking sight
Of purest beauty and innocence
Uncorrupted by this cruel world
Spirits not crushed by this cold life
I can't look away...

You bathe in the sunlight of spring
While I'm forever stuck in this dreary autumn
Like a flower that will never bloom
Forever in this dreary autumn

You glow with the warmth of the sun
But your rays don't reach me
In the cold, dreary autumn
The sun doesn't warm...

This dreadful emptiness
The cold, cold world
You slammed the door on me
You locked me in the cold

I craved your warmth
But it was too late
Too late, you realized
That I was in the cold
