Your presence slips away
When your face
Dissolves in the rain
My memories go astray
When steps lose
Their path in my brain
But when melodies return
Introitus calls me home

Music once flooded my soul
Now slowly darkness grows
Leaving nothing in the well
But a lost and hollow shell

When all is gone
Lost flame remains
Witness of dark
Succumbed to the void
Remember the praise
Hold on to the spark
Thoughts crumbled to ash
Last thing to remain
Are these fragments
Of Mozarts requiem

Fragments
Of Mozarts requiem

Reality drifts away
Words forget
Their shape on my tongue
Like a half heard refrain
Losing myself
On paths I once stayed on
But when woodwinds start to rise
The choir still sings its praise

Music once flooded my soul
Now slowly darkness grows
Leaving nothing in the well
But a lost and hollow shell

When all is gone
Lost flame remains
Witness of dark
Succumb to the void
Prone to erase
Hold on to the spark
Last thing to remain
Are these fragments
Of Mozarts requiem
Fragments
Of Mozarts requiem

Who was I once
Bathed in melodies
Wrapped in chords and harmonies
Now life is almost gone
Nothing left
Except there is
Grasped the last
Of the spark
Lacrimosa drifts through the dark

Day of wrath
This day
Dissolves the world to dust
Ash over memory
Ash over name
Ash over melody
Ash on refrain

When all is gone
Lost flame erased
Mind turned to dust
Live in the void
Todays just a haze
No crumble of past
But somewhere in the deep
I found those remains
These fragments
Of Mozarts requiem

Mozarts requiem
Last thing to remain
Are fragments
Of Mozarts requiem

Mozarts requiem
Mozarts requiem
Mozarts requiem

Day of wrath
This day
Dissolves the world to ash
And all that's left
In my memories
Are fragments
Of Mozarts requiem

Mozarts requiem
Mozarts requiem
