My First Kill

It was all so quiet
Until the pain set in
I tried to stop
Tried not to begin
But it was too late
For him to be saved
Is this the silence
I once craved

Made of shadows
Made of dust
What is this promise
We've come to trust
For in a second
It'll all just blow away
How can we tell
If we're made to stay

Gods unwanted children
Have we forgotten
Why we're down here
Shedding blood begotten
Those rebels
Who've lost their cause
Choose to seek
Less indifferent scars

A first for everything
And always a last
How can we use our time
When its gone so fast
