Opia - On Death's Door (Official Video)
“I Welcome Thee, Eternal Sleep”: Here the body withers and consciousness fades beneath the unrelenting march of time. Minutes slip away, carrying hopes and the brightness of life, leaving only the echo of departed days and the chill of eternity’s embrace.
Among frozen landscapes and in the shadows of waning memory, a promise of repose resounds. Ancient darkness stirs as sorrow becomes a silent companion at the threshold of oblivion, where the bitterness of loss meets the hush of forgetfulness and the final peace.

On Death's Door Part I
Accursed sickness
Wasting my body away
Encased in decay
Terminal
Begging for the end
For my spirit to be freed
Please stay by my side
I know it hurts to see me this way
Please take my hand
Reassure me that my peace draws near
Will you remember me?
Not as I am
But that which I once was
Will you recall the vibrance
I held in my prime?
When you recall my face
Will it be full of laughter?
Promise you won't forget
The vibrance of my life
A pale,
waxen, morbid shell
A hideous shade of myself
My greatest fear
Is this deathly state
Becomes your memory of me
Please calm my fears
Soothe me with tales of better days
So I may drift into the night
A memory of when I felt alive
Will you remember me?
Not as I am
But that which I once was
Will you recall the vibrance
I held in my prime?
When you recall my face
Will it be full of laughter?
Promise you won't forget
The vibrance of my life.
