Forsaken

Benighted

Forsake 
Every night happens the same relentless terrifying scenario 
Alex ten years old has to confront hell to finally find the sleep 

Closed eyelids do not prevent him to see 
The hands on the ears and he still listens 
Afraid that his heart stopped in the hammering of a funeral march 
Forsaken, the hour has come 
He's forsaken by the ones he trusted the most in 

Between invisible creatures as darkness is falling around 
Freezing kisses from his mother rejoining her bed in heaven 

Closed eyelids do not prevent him to see 
The hands on the ears and he still listens 
Afraid that his heart stopped in the hammering of a funeral march 
Scary noises under him 

An uncertain place on the Earth and the ritual reject 
Lead him to surrender himself in terror 
Slave to the aggressive outside 
In the lair of the ashamed child 

As he stands close to the Styx 
Ready to fall and swim 
Convinced that he will never be able to cross it 
Abysses inhale him from underground 

Closed eyelids do not prevent him to see 
The hands on the ears and he still listens 
Afraid that his heart stopped in the hammering of a funeral march 
Forsaken, the hour has come 
He's forsaken by the ones he trusted the most in
