[Verse 1] On an endless grey highway Cold ash in my hair Stale scent of the rotting Hanging thick in the air Up ahead in the void-space I saw a flickering light My mind grew heavy and my pulse grew still I couldn't run from the night There it loomed in the doorway I heard the tolling bell And I said softly to myself This isn't living and it isn't Hell Then it held out a lantern And it dragged me away There were whimpers down the corridor I thought I heard them say Such an empty space Such an empty space Such an empty space Such an empty space [Verse 2] The void is horribly twisted It's a labyrinth of dread It holds a lot of weeping, weeping souls Who are dead How they writhe in the courtyard Cold, rotting sweat Some scream to remember Some scream to forget So I called out to nothing Please bring on the night It said, We haven't let a body rest since the fading of light And still those echoes are wailing from far away Tear your mind in the middle of the dark Just to hear them say [Verse 3] Last thing I remember I was clawing at the floor I had to find a passage out To the life I had before Despair, said the shadow You are anchored here to grieve You can scream out any time you like But you can never leave
