The Fallen

I’ll take all that you have Take what, what I need My soul is parched with all grief Bitterness and sadness is what I feed Those that don’t know my shadow My shadow, what it cast Darkness and beseech I plead in silence, cry to the world Like a fallen angel I look back to heaven Where’s my salvation gone Wipe these tears from my soul Gaze into the pool and looks back at me with Crimson tears Eyes look into a world of dead emotion Shattered my wings, no more tales to tell Forget my lies, after all my world is hell Temptation to fall is the unbeliever Painting a picture is a soul of black Life fallen to ruin and shame Fallen forever in this dark depth of empathy Wade in cold still water of silence Ripple of water away is my past Quiet in the world and beyond My hands hold the tears of sorrow I lift my head and cry out into the silence I have fallen, fallen into the halls of eternity The lost one of serenity Slipping away, leave this world behind The rapture of life, death collides Fading farther into the other world Open my eyes, awake in the afterlife Shadows reap sweet sorrow To reach my last fantasy May I find what I seek in death May I find the answer in death to forget my past Or have I lost my way for eternity The fallen
