wandering in, these demons
takers of the soul
treading through the footsteps
innocence, they stole
on and one they wander
through each muddled day
searching for the moment
in which, your soul, they'll stay
reddened eyes could warn you
but watch, you never do
you'll just keep on wand'ring
until their prey is you

hurt seems to linger
each time you leave
the burning so deep
no hope i recieve
during your absence
i become so unwhole
missing your freedom
for you are my soul
giving me comfort
and refuge from all
taking my sorrow
and breaking my fall
i live in your presence
for you're all i need
but each time you leave me
my heart has to bleed

unknown tears fall upon us
an innocent, to wash away
pitious minds to mourn her
for her heart, they slay
killing all that loves her
all that she holds dear
they end her mind with Scripture
and deny her every tear
an arrogance destroyed us
for her, we let slip through
the tiny cracks of hatred
and there, her sorrow grew
Her eyes so full of knowledge
she knows the brink of hell
she feels the depth within it
yet she cannot tell
so trapped within our hatred
she misses all we killed
there's a hole so deep inside her
nothing there is filled
here i must protect her
at death, i draw the line
a girl of many sorrows
became a child of mine
