Turn to see a face you know not
Sitting in the dark corner
Already it has begun to cry
The ever crying mourner.
I do not know why it just sits
Head in hands and eyes all wet
Someone died, I don't know who
He forver pays the debt.
He never flies and leaves me be
To sit in solemn silence
Breathing slowly, my heart beats
To pay for this acceptance.
Hand to heart, I swear it now
Leave it never will
It torments me and sits there thus
It's breathing ever shrill.
To end this pain I see hence now
There is no way to leave it
Take it now and turn it down
A lamp that's barely lit.
Take the silver metal now
It's cold and never knowing
Why it's heading down to flesh
To know what it is doing.
The clotting red of material soon
Shall know it's end to thus
Never shall her shaking head
Ever be discussed.
And now you turn and see the girl
Who sits in that dark cornor
Lift your knife and swipe it down
The chain grows ever longer.
Notallowedtocry
