about

A song of woe and overcoming abuse.

lyrics

I once knew love and I once knew pain,
I once knew joy from my youthful days
But crimson nights turned to crimson dawns,
I knew it was then tis a death I longed

An endless cycle where her lips would tell
Poems of love and poetry of Hell.
Her talons snared all my prayers to the moon
Entombed in to chastise, entombed here with you.

Silence 'neath laughter

The shattered glass of the mirror tells
Her shattered past where the vistas dwell.
I felt your demons as I felt your wounds,
I begged for freedom as I begged yours too,

But you painted me in your nightmares of old
In blood where He bathed your innocent soul
And casted thee where the torments compelled
To banished dreams and to empty farewells.

Silence 'neath laughter

The howling winds would wake me in fear
In fear of you, you who lingers near
Across the reasons where I wear a mask
To hide the truth, to hide under laughs

Oh, twas only a dream
A dream that once broke me.
Oh I wish to redeem
That light stolen from me.

The howling winds have warned me of you
The howling seas and the whispers too
To hide the grief 'neath a broken mask,
To hide the truths beneath ambivalent laughs.
