Cold as the Grave

Feel the laments wash away
Pain inexistent in unminding fray;
Grasping heart and last living will
Don't give in to the silent hill

Cold as the grave;
Unbroken as the brave;
Pace 'way from the ledge
Reciting worn pledge

Cold as the grave
Descending from grace;
Hamper this heart
For, life is an art
Superlative to the dark
