Five Words

Words from the wise Said, "when fires die, it's just begun" So cross your heart Though you hope to make it out this time Her neck, his chain Eyes that shake you to your very core Smiles are erased For your soul, it's become far too late Run, he has found you Both out of your cage The words you can't say Vanish with dismay Come weigh your choice against all the darkness now Weakness in hope has brought us to our last frail words Voices give way to the panic Watching from the sidelines like a ghost The hollow look that's on her face Was the price that only she can pay Walls of bones stand tall Cracks start to show The wall built from deceit so long ago Caving in from reckless hands not my own Darkness overflows the roads before me Reveals the one place to hide he can't see Come weigh your choice against all the darkness now Both falling back into the new divide, now cracked White emptiness All hollowness This labyrinth Deliverance Welcome to the world of naught Forsake all reason and thought Time will hold us all In its debt so long Bleed for a new day And see how much they will take away Another drowns amongst the rain Clouds hang still over both our graves Different faces, indifferent skies The conclusion, a wake of decaying cries Time won't let go The five words unknown Lost in our birth Right words, the wrong worth
