Dying in the sorrow
of your shattered heart
wishing for the reasons
our souls drift apart
Could i be the distance
or the endless pain?
the burning and devotion
that we can't sustain
The loss, it seems much greater
than the wound i see
your heartache and your hatred
are drowning out your plea
Feeding on a solitude
only you can feel
weeping for afflictions
you refuse to heal
In these dying moments
all mem'ries disappear
a childhood's sweet carcas
made pure with angel tears...
10/12/98 Scars
Self-loathing so deep
it may never be broken
blind to the love
and deaf to what's spoken
Hatred has grown
from that tiny seed
shattering hearts
and making me bleed
Your eyes, full of sorrow
and shadows that lie
fighting for refuge
from this child's cry
Slipping away
from all you hold dear
you're deaf to this hurt
and blind to my fear
So scared of your hatred
i run, but can't hide
fleeing the anguish
your soul, it has died
Empty and broken
I see who you are
your faith can be lost
but never your scars
