The cruelty of time
Crumbling stone, destroying minds
Every chill in the air
Turns dreams to whispers
And hope to lies

The time is now
I leave with nothing
But my fear

Don't let me go
I need you to stay
I don't want to be alone
Please hold me until I'm gone
The banishing of old
Inspires something beautiful
Handfuls of sand to declare
Can't cross the river Styx
Without eyes

The time is now
I leave with nothing
But my fear

Don't let me go
I need you to stay
I don't want to be alone
Please hold me until I'm gone

Mercy
Not for me
I want that for you, my love
I'm so sorry

Don't let me go
I need you to stay
I don't want to be alone
Please hold me until I'm gone
