Why blink, this second's over
End of days is near
Don't cry for fallen soldiers
Freedom has no fear
Why hold the hand of sorrow
Tears show such disdain
Thorns will bloom tomorrow
In floods of salty rain
Why pray on tainted alters
Deaf saints hear no screams
Pious lips will falter
Taste bitter broken dreams
Why hope as brilliant daybreaks
Long night put to sleep
Lost and lonely heartbreaks
Eternal shadow's deep
