my tears mark my cheeks
violent scars on my wrists
my body is a battlefield
my mood, it swings and shifts
i despise the loneliness
it surrounds me like a shroud
wails and crying fill the air
i think i like the sound
death is heavy in the air
i see no one about
my throat is dry, there's no voice left
but i wish i could shout
the night is dark
a sky without a single star
the moon has lost its purity
stained red with the war
