CRUSHED SANCTUARY
In the blaze of the night, I stayed awake
Tears lost in silence, I held my breath, as long as it has to take
Darkness painted the world, and I know, that evil prowls within
Scared to death I may, but now, I cannot do anything
I was with them, but now I am alone
They left me with people, I have never known
What did I’ve done wrong, to be here and be left away?
I wasn’t perfect, but should they just have loved me anyway?
I want their hug, I want their kiss, and right now, I want them here
Oh, Mama, why have you left me alone in such great fear?
Papa, where are you? Should you be here to give me protection?
Why am I now alone, left in an endless pit of isolation?
I could hear other children cry, but why am I here with them?
Should I be with you; outside this cage of contemptment?
I could feel the cold, but my body burns in such adrenaline fire
I wanted to understand, why I am here to feed other beings desire
Now, here they come, crawling like cockroaches in the mud
They felt my feet, then my legs and then they hurt my bud
I was bound, I cannot move, and I felt the pain sink in through
Is this what my mama and papa’s promise, of I love you?
SOLITARY
The sun is up, but it’s no other day
The dawn is broken, but here I lie where I have been laid
The night has ended, but the darkness have stayed
I closed my eyes in stillness, let no light invade
I want to dream, but dreams never come true
I want to wish upon shooting stars, but where they’ll go? I have no clue
I hear the song of the raindrops, and I hope they would take me away
But when I opened my eyes, I know, forever here I’ll stay
My body aches, as my soul seemed to be crushed
My mind is empty, my heart longs for a caring touch
I stared into nothingness, and I saw nothing at all
Like words left unheard, echoes rang through, from my hopeless call
Tears have dried; I have no strength to cry
I lied wide awake, but seems I have already died
The silence was unbearing, but my pledges are much more in pain
Bursting through every beat of my heart, much more than it could contain
