Lost Souls lyrics

I walked in the world where shadows lied

Where dreams were born with hopes that died

A place that death has hidden woeful strife

Where graves unkept bring forth its life

With topo map in hand and a reconning intent

Guided on by the souls' forgotten extent

To a place amid the reeds a shoulder tall

There disguised in natural camo sprawl

Alone, no mortal companions to break silence

Save the somber spectacle in awed reverence

Found amid the stones in oblivion's bowers

The elements inevidably erasing resting rowers

A faceless landscape inhabited by spectral nuance

This place infested by feelings unresolved of wants

That anonimity of the eons that will unceasingly

Eroding existance, toils, aspiriations, decreasingly

None can expect to be known forever giving

To be reexposed to the troubles of living

Days limited, brief in the realm of history

A lifetime known, an eternal mystery

This uncivilized region featureless

Lest cemetaries abandoned measureless

Towns razed by war and persistent progress

Their bonds broken by contention's congress

Nature reclaims what men have cast aside

Even their once endeared mortal relics now hide

Wind and sand, rain and rot now lay claim

To those places that today have no name
