Manticora - A Lake That Drained lyrics

Another soul departed today A grieving fact that I have grown used to Ashes to ashes and dust to what? A ticket to oblivion when your dear ones follow you Sickness drained the lake inside me That I used to shed my tears Sorrow and sadness in abundance Left a desert through so many years Gone forever, all but a memory A grain of sand in a brief moment in time The rain is pouring down, saddening me As I listen to the sound of the church bell chime Sickness drained the lake inside me That I used to shed my tears Sorrow and sadness in abundance Left a desert through so many years What is life but a flash of a switch in the light of eternity Another soul departed today Accompanied by the choir's song Another soul departed today It took a little part of me along Sickness drained the lake inside me That I used to shed my tears Sorrow and sadness in abundance Left a desert through so many years
