This is one of my favorite songs by the band Atreyu! This song is really sad and depressing, but in the depression of this song, I find an odd sense of comfort. While listening to this song, I do not get depressed, I relax!

Atreyu-The Remembrance Ballad
These days are closing in.
The end has become apparent.
We’re only here for so long.
Will anyone remember my name?
When time has washed away
The dust…of my ashes.
When my head rests in a velvet lined casket.
What’s out there?
What is my eternal fate?
It only just recently hit me,
That this life…is just a state.
Mortality fading,
Like the innocence of love,
I’m scared to death,
Of what’s to become.
Of my immortal soul,
Of this eternal flame, will you remember?
Will your heart sing with pain?
Who calls out my name? (my name)
Who can tell me what happens,
When my eyes close for the last time?(my eyes close)
Does it all simply end, in a blanket of darkness? (does it all)
What of my soul, what of my soul?
All those things you couldn’t say, you should have said.
All those “I love you”s lost,
Weigh more like lead on your chest.
All those things you couldn’t say, you should have said.
All those “I love you”s lost,
Weigh more like lead on your chest.
Of my immortal soul
Of this eternal flame, will you remember?
Will your heart sing with pain?
Who calls out my name? (my name)
Who can tell me what happens,
When my eyes close for the last time? (my eyes close)
Does it all simply end, (does it all)
in a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?
If I could take back all those misspent days,
Every second of anger,
I would wash my sins away.
Who calls out my name? (my name)
Who can tell me what happens,
When my eyes close for the last time? (my eyes close)
Does it all simply end, (does it end)
in a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?
Who calls out my name? (my name)
Who can tell me what happens,
When my eyes close for the last time? (my eyes close)
Does it all simply end, (does it all)
in a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?
