A darkness drifts inside my soul
Into my heart it breathes then dies...
The idle night beckons thee to the dark stone
To howl at the stars and to grieve there alone...
Deep lies the hurt of nonexistence
Of dreams that died in vain...
You think that you can see behind
The smile that hides the pain...
She stands on the edge of the earth
looking out across the land...
I live my life here in between
Broken hearts and dusty dreams...
As little girls we used to sit
Among the daisies in the glen...
As the bottle tips from lifeless fingers
The darkness pits against the wall...
Who tends the heart of this ocean
As its rage beats in each wave...
Sometimes, it's all that I can do to let a moment...
To take a breath and face my fears and know that...
It was a perfect day, today
The sun fell warm upon my face...
A heart was cast upon the shore
Broken by the oceans roar...
