Stars shined wildly bright outside
the night I left my home,
when I gave all the pain away to the wind,
and all these things that remain undone.
Racked thoughts cracks and crumbles down
like this dying pacing of worn out sounds.
Moonlight dressed that blue of mine
and the weight of that rip called love,
I get sick of trying to keep myself in time
with all this nonsense huge waste of thoughts.
Useless hopes cracks and crumbles down
like this dying pacing of worn out sounds.
It weighs nothing at all,
this light being it's tearing me down.
What is life good for?,
the wars behind,
the will grows old.
It burn with such delight,
and won't last long
before the moment starts to crack,
it's passing in front my eyes and it ain't far apart
but far enough to leave behind.
Stars shined wildly bright outside
the night I left my home,
when I gave all the pain away to the wind,
and all these things that remain undone.
Racked thoughts cracks and crumbles down
like this dying pacing of worn out sounds.
Life weighs nothing at all,
and this black gall of my soul have soaked to my bones.
