Requiem by Darkways
"Requiem" explores the final reckoning between life and time. It follows a fading soul standing at the edge of mortality, longing to sacrifice its last moments for a single night of youth.
The song reflects on the anguish of decay and the desperate desire to relive what once was; a fleeting rebellion against the inevitable. It’s a meditation on memory, loss, and the haunting beauty of wishing for one more chance to feel alive.

Lyrics
Dust swells beneath the silence
Cold breath behind my teeth
A name I once remembered
Now whispers underneath
Tonight, tonight, I face the rite
Tonight, I trade what’s left to die
Tonight, tonight, I’ll take this wine
Tonight, I’m begging for a chance...
My skin begins to shatter
My limbs refuse the weight
The mirror cracks in silence
And shows my dying fate
Tonight, tonight, I face the rite
Tonight, I trade what’s left to die
Tonight, tonight, I’ll take this wine
Tonight, I’m begging for...
One night
One sight
To find
My past
I want to see her one last time...
My fear
Turns rage
My Pain
Turns hate
The demons crawl over my mind...
Frost creeps along my shadow
Blind echoes grip my bones
These walls hold all my secrets
And shows what I’ve become
One night
One sight
To find
My past
I want to see her one last time...
My fear
Turns rage
My Pain
Turns hate
The demons crawl over my mind...
Tonight, tonight, I face the rite
Tonight, I trade what’s left to die
Tonight, tonight, I’ll take this wine
Tonight, I’m going to be alive
