    The Painful Death

    As she sits in the corner she is paused in the middle
    Of feelings that so entangle her
    Her father lies dead, with no life, on the floor
    She checks again, she must be sure

    Tendrils of darkness consume him
    Trapping his body in an endless embrace
    As his soul wanders on
    Lost from his mind

    She sits and she watches with fear and sadness
    She weeps as his heart passes on
    She opens her mouth, to the heavens above
    But no words avail her now

    She is lost as she sits
    Finding no comfort
    And the world still swerves round
    Not even caring

    The girl sits alone
    She holds herself tight
    There is nobody there for her
    She is lonesome tonight

    And the twilight consumes her
    As she sits there for years
    For the rest of her life
    She sits in her fears

    And so she passes also
    The the sky above her head
    Into the sun, into the stars
    The sorrow, her only friend

    Empty Arm's Regret
    By: Twisted Heart

    Silence echo down the halls
    Upon the heart, a teardrop falls
    Inside the soul a hurt to bear
    Cascades of white and sterile fair.

    Vacant eyes in distant sleep
    Tore from the soul, a tear to weep
    No sound to stay upon his breath
    The tender soul consumed in death

    Was there no hope as darkness came
    Behind his eyes, his soul to claim
    Against the night in shadows cast
    His daughter's feel of guilt came fast.

    A time of torment filled with 'what ifs'
    Tears fall upon her trembling lips
    A moment came too late to see
    Before her father ceased to breathe.

    Too busy, was her reason then
    To distance herself from her kin
    Though many years had past them by
    In pain, she stays to question why.

    Time with her father... she felt no need
    When she had time, there he'd be
    But time has come, he's laid to rest
    With empty arms, she holds regret.

    Daddies gone

    Her shield of might
    she had a reason to fight
    her daddy holding her so tight
    wheres her guiding light?

    Gone with those thugs
    he was heroundously mugged
    only having ten dollars
    finally killed him for another.

    11 dollars they picked
    they put him down
    and left him horribly sick.

    Little girl crying, holding him
    as he closed his eyes
    on that solem night
    He left her.

    She couldnt do a thing
    feeling like such a weakling.
    Shouting for help
    knowing none would come.

    Lying by his side
    she had let this great man die
    wishing she could hide
    but all she could do was lie.

    A great years pass
    but these memories last
    they are not past.

    This is the movie she plays every night
    having such a fright
    shes messed up for the rest of life.
