Tears consumed my nights
Only falling astray
Soon they were faded
By such a bitter taste
The bottle only lied
I thought it would help
Left disappointed again
The tears had arrived
Once the blade was the way
The blood was my comfort
It hurt the hearts of others
I’m left to my tears again
The pain, the emptiness
Resided in my heart
Then I saw yours eyes
They caressed each beat
I felt the silk stroke my cheek
Your hands, wiped my tears
I heard a sweet melody
As you spoke upon my ear
The pain, the emptiness
I’ll take it away
I collapsed into his arms
The tears are no more
