I just nod and smile
All the while...
Shattered glass litters the pavement
Amongst the splatter of red...
Life is pain,
Pain is life...
The pain wells up inside,
Like an ocean...
You said you'd always love me,
And that we'd never part...
Eyes wide and unblinking,
Her gaze fixed on the moon...
She knelt with the flowers in her hand;
In front of the cross by the highway...
Senseless tears;
Irrational fears...
Hush, hush sweetie,
Don't make a sound...
In your eyes,
I see everything...
The sound of my own screaming
Is keeping me awake...
I've held on for too long
It's over now I know...
