A Question of Heaven

Lyrics

The time is close now
 The end is near
 My walk through the valley
 Trails of fear
 I feel empty
 My penance overdue
 I guess it's too late now to be with you
 I'm extremely frightened
 Of what will surely be
 I sold myself, the death of me
 (I know you can't forgive me) I know you can't forgive me
 (I know I'm on my own) I know I'm on my own
 (I know that I've betrayed you) I've betrayed you
 I walk alone
 What exactly is the meaning of this?
 Just pawns in your twisted game
 Severe pain for the lie I'm livin'
 For a love I never could betray
 "Question me not", say the Lord unto thee
 You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny
 Denied of this life is what you are to be
 You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny
 Lord, I pound my fists at you
 Won't you just let me die?
 Would I not suffer enough?
 No inner peace, no after life
 "Question me not", say the Lord unto thee
 You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny
 Denied of this life is what you are to be
 You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny
 I did what I thought was right
 All for the love of my life
 I know it's sad but true
 Something is very wrong
 Condemned to suffer so long
 For a love so true
 The question that lies within
 Is so hard to understand
 It still tears at me
 And in my dying breath
 My heart holds no regrets
 I wouldn't change a thing
 My spirit begins to rise
 To the heavenly skies
 Just to be shunned away by you
 Now all I want is to die
 No streets of gold in the sky
 And I wash my hands of you
 Rising to the heaven's light
 Just to plead for death
 Just to be denied
 Rising to the heaven's light
 Just to plead for death
 Just to be denied
 Oh, I know you can't forgive me (Rising to the heaven's light)
 I know I'm on my own (Just to plead for death)
 I know that I've betrayed you (Just to be denied)
 You know I walk alone, you know I walk alone
 (Just to plead for death)
 I walk, I walk the trail of fear (Just to be denied)
 I pound my fists at you (Rising to the heaven's light)
 I'm shunned away by you (Just to plead for death)
 I wash my hands of you (Just to be denied)
 Why won't you let me die? (Rising to the heaven's light)
 Why won't you let me die? (Just to plead for death)
 Why won't you let me die? (Just to be denied)
 Rising to the heaven's light
 Just to plead for death
 Just to be denied
 Rising to the heaven's light
 Just to plead for death
 Just to be denied
 Rising to the heaven's light
 Just to plead for death
 Just to be denied
