Withered (IS) - The Dying Sunset lyrics

When the last tear has been shed and my last wounds have bled I return to the mournful night. The sorrowful comfort eases my soul. For again I have been betrayed, in the far I could even see the tempest drawing near. My dark refuge, you have waited for me. Now I shall be eternally yours. In the eyes of the stranger, a glimpse of you I saw and yearned to be again at one with darkness. I stand and watch the dying sunset. Will it return at dawn? Or will the clouds cast upon me a day of dank greyness? I lie here under the stars and my heart summons the pain. Dulcet and calm is my despair now, for at last I seem to understand. The wolf I saw on that December night, I long to glance at his eyes again. Like mirrors they seemed, and what I saw was me, yet it was not only the reflection of his tears... In them I could see his life, empty, oblivious but full of knowledge. Endlessly, searching like me.... Now when the trust has been broken I return to the December darkness. The distant storm seems to be growing weak. Still is the night, I inhale the smell of the woods and my heart grows colder and stronger. My heart once burned with a flame of hope. Now I only yearn to be blown by the winds and flow in the endless night sky, to never return to you...
