Turn away (don't look at me)
Say goodbye (I hear a tear)
as it F

from your empty eyes
mascara runs, I don't have
to see it, it's as loud as
bullets shattering fragile
glass, so is your heart as
it beats a painful melody...
Dancing in the shadows
of a love, that's lost it's
will to live and is a fading
symphony of ruin and forsaken
cries into the night of 1,000
voices, that will forever
repeat itself, in my head
I hang my head low, as the
tune begins to play, I take
my bow and make my exit, the
door comes to a fatal crash

i like how you put this together and the last stanza is absolutly perfect. some of the lines felt a little broken but overall it was very good. thanks for entering.
