The Ballad of Silent Voices
Flyin' down the stairway in the claws of darknessStandin' near the doorway with a soul so heartless..
Come closer and let the skies pour down rain
Uncover words for your mind will eternally explain..
Sharp thoughts they flirt with the burin' sun
True words like bullets pierce and unfold ones broken..
Hollow thoughts they fight with scorn yieldin' hatred
Wake yourself with open ears beyond voices listed..
Don't be down and out for life ain't long
Cease to judge the right for everyone maybe wrong..
Grab what you got and move along for time is short
Today may fade into tomorrow throwin' everything into a distort..
Lay down temptation's pages and close the book
Barkin' words they fake like swords with an evil look..
Thoughts with untold words run beyond failures
Listen to the unspoken who conveys minus gestures..
