This is a song I wrote in a dark time, holding on to my faith for dear life.
Lyrics
"Misfortune"
Apathy feeds on somnolence of the mind
But even it cannot decline my aimless wandering
Drowning in the sea of reverie
How cold the blackened water...
Branched corpses proliferate the scenery
They extend their limbs to harm me
What mortal sin, what abomination,
What disgust in heaven can I have committed
that even the lifeless trees would revel in my pain?
No greenery remains to welcome me
Even grass's vivacity has withdrawn from the bitterness
Perhaps life has hidden it's face from me
Shunned me for sins I cannot retrace
Sunlight hides behind the walls of ash
What solace is offered me?
Where darkness is,
Will a Light one day shine?
