Travelling the road of tears
there are bodies on the street:
Victims of the expectations,
endless ends we’ll never meet.
Why can’t we love no longer?
We’re so eager to accept.
Why do we hide from the sun
in the dark chamber?
I don’t want to remember
the desperation
of missing something
that has never been there.
All we see is black
and all the birds,
they sing and bleed.
Light’s gone nowhere.
I want my future back.
Do you feel the bombs raining?
Down
Down
Ignore what we need.
I can feel the explosions.
My heart is gray.
Not enough rain to wash the blood away
but we must play our part.
Kneel down.
Life's a bird's cry right through my heart.
Wake up
I need you
and I don't even know who you are
and there's that rhythm
inside me,
fingers desperately raping the keys.
The golden road burrowed in mud.
Where is humanity?
Speak up
We're all covered in black
in one way or another.
There's no escape.
It's a weak world,
freedom fragile.
Threatened by those dark chains.
We can’t deny
we’re getting high on pain.
Stand up
Cover your ears
and your eyes
and your mouths.
We're all liars.
Even my mirror is judging me.
I don't want to know.
I don't want to feel.
It's a world drowning in tears.
The art of dying
can never be mastered.
Looking down at the beaten bodies,
shadows of dust,
and not a single cloud in the sky
to cover up our deeds.
No words left
to speak of terror.
Do what you must
to make ends meet.
It's the big picture
and we're just pieces of a puzzle
that can never be complete.
I don’t want to stay
a concept collapsing.
Begone weird pillars!
We'll burn it all away.
