My father died today A lovely melody is fading My memories will stay For months he was waiting For you dark brother of sleep Limbs are crippled, pain cant be eased Decline and illness creep Open doors for you, he is released s my life a castle built on sand Did I hold a liars hand Walls of betrayal, roof of lies Oh Im scared what if truth dies Whatever words will tell Tales from heaven or from hell Theyll never change our past What is true will always last His life lies in my hand A story from an unknown dark land Happened many years ago In a town where silent winds blow Ashes to ashes he claims Scattered pieces, nothing remains But a fading melody Some loving words in a diary
