The Flight Of El Cid

by Chris Rodriguez   Jan 21, 2007


No time to waste
Pack you're things we're leaving
Look forward and never back
Keep you're hands above your eyes
Follow the one way track

Cover the eyes of the children
So they stay innocent
My judgment failed that night we fled
Unspoken words never stayed clearer
The moments were drawing nearer
And to what I didn't know

Burn the noise

The broken seal of morality
Lies in pieces on the floor
The fire was burning everything we knew
And there was no time to mourn

People turning to animals to monsters
Each time another layed forever
Everything we fought for
Started to fall
And you could tell so clearly from the writing on the wall
I was loosing sight
True beauty and light was sinking in the night

Burn the noise

I'll make it through
With your presence

    Wow, this was slightly twisted, very good tho, lots of powerful strong images, i loved the repitition of "burn the noise" i also thought the last two lines were great, well done
