The shadows compelled her
So she never left them...

She looked at her hands
Not black with burn...

I've hung on by one hand
Hoping that things will fade...

Angel wings charred black as coal
From a frail body rise...

I remember that night all too well
I remember most you walking through that door...

There's a new light in my life
But I don't know what it means...

Friendship and love are the two greatest gifts
That one can ever recieve...

I see her everyday
She seems so happy now...

The shadow beings to crack
And then falls away...

For too long have I suffered
For too long have I cried...

Though my heart is nearly gone
I think I can still keep going...

The sun has finally set
And the long day is done...
