To The Fallen

When all the heroes have fallen
And left the earth to die
When all the heroes on this earth
Have fallen, fallen from the sky

Tell me that you’ll be there
Despite my insanity
Tell me that I’m beautiful
Despite my tragedies

When all the leaves have fallen
To show the limbs, they constantly reach for the sky
When all the leaves have fallen
Unto the decaying ruin of this life

Tell me that you’ll be there
Despite all of this indecisiveness
Tell me that you’ll hold me
When the world becomes too heavy to lift

Tell me that you’ll wrap me in a tourniquet of lace
And let me go to spin as gracefully
As a ballerina upon shattered glass, be brave

Be brave as this toxin pollutes your mind
They say
Be brave as we give you the prescription to sedation
Today
Be brave as we lock your heart away, your mind fit to bleed
Be brave my darling angel, perseverance is only half of your feat

For when all the heroes have fallen
And left the earth to die
Our tears of poison will eat the decay
Of this ever burning strife
