April cries in rain
Shadowed by her pain
Lonely skies the same
Nothing feels humane

May lost hope in spring
Birds no more to sing
Broken heart on string
Winter's whispering

Girls with month names
Fragile hearts like flames
Burning in the winds
Bound by sorrow's chains

June fades with the dusk
Memories they rust
Love turned into dust
Trust felt like a bust

July's tears they fall
Echoes down the hall
Love but just a call
World seems so damn small

Sad faces
Hopeless chases
Timeless places
Empty spaces

April cries

The Price We Paid

Empty land wide and bare
Whispers lost in the air
Cried the wind in despair
Dusted heart broken there

Maggots crawl through the skin
Where the life once had been
We were swept by the sin
Story lost to the grin

Dust and bone all alone
Echoes cry to the stone
Silent nights on our own
Lost in dreams we've outgrown

Hollow eyes staring still
Cold embrace from the chill
In the wasteland so ill
Life's an uphill
A cruel kill

Veins of grass twist and twine
Yet no beauty they'll find
In the echoes of time
Memories
Left behind

Whispered lies
Distant song
Tell the tale of what's gone
We were right
We were wrong
But our time took too long

Empty land wide and bare
Whispers lost in the air
Cried the wind in despair
Dusted heart broken there

Maggots crawl through the skin
Where the life once had been
We were swept by the sin
Story lost to the grin

Dust and bone all alone
Echoes cry to the stone
Silent nights on our own
Lost in dreams we've outgrown

Hollow eyes staring still
Cold embrace from the chill
In the wasteland so ill
Life's an uphill
A cruel kill

Veins of grass twist and twine
Yet no beauty they'll find
In the echoes of time
Memories
Left behind

Whispered lies
Distant song
Tell the tale of what's gone
We were right
We were wrong
But our time took too long

Consumed

In a shadowed room
He toils away
Chipping stone by night
By day
Sweat and blood for lifeless clay
Creation steals his soul
His pay

Cold and silent
Stone meets eye
Forming shapes beneath the sky
Perfection carved
He breathes a sigh
Not knowing that it's all a lie

Stone heart
Stone heart
Cruel and cold
Come to life
The prophecy told
Rise from rock
Let fate unfold
Stone heart
Stone heart
Dreams we sold

Moonlight glimmers
Eyes now gleam
Dark whispers shatter dream
Lifeless no more
A silent scream
In granite grip
No place to lean

Blood meets marble
Carving's done
Life now stolen
Artist shunned
In shadows where there's no sun
Darkness whispers "you can't run"

Stone heart
Stone heart
Cruel and cold
Come to life
The prophecy told
Rise from rock
Let fate unfold
Stone heart
Stone heart
Dreams we sold

Eternal dance in night’s embrace
Stone heart pulse in a cold place
Creator gone without a trace
Lifeless lord of an empty space

Stone heart
Stone heart
Cruel and cold
Come to life
The prophecy told
Rise from rock
Let fate unfold
Stone heart
Stone heart
Dreams we sold
