Broken tears and hollowed corpses

by Carley   Jan 18, 2007


Broken tears and hollowed corpses
Lonely hearts ride on burning horses
This is hell and there's no turning back
Everything around you is under attack

There is no safety, there is no love
Not even an angel sent from above
Just rotting corpses and a lot of fear
No one around that you held so dear

Fire scorching and ice freezing
There is no comfort that you find pleasing
No arms to hold you and tell you you're ok
No one to talk to to hear what you say.

Just rotting corpses and broken hope
To many discomforts with which you must cope
You're here forever and there's no turning back
This is hell and you're under attack

Fire will burn you till you're black and raw
Hell brings out your very worst flaws
Makes you too weak to get up from you knees
No hope left to make you think that one day you'll be free

Scars that never heal bruises that never fade
A life that is lost, and won't see the light of day
Broken hearts and lonely tears
Drop to the floor and become your fears

Shattered and alone on the floor it lays
You hurt so much in so many ways
Torn to pieces and feeling numb
This hell and you have finally become one

You live it each day as you walk through the halls
Disguise it with a smile and watch yourself fall
Scream silently for help to get you out
No one knows what you're talking about

Walk the halls and you look so good
When deep inside you're not understood
Scars on your arms that won't go away
And bruises everywhere that won't ever fade
