Silent Lies
The night all too serene, as I feel the moonlight die
The stars above still burn so bright, as do my silent lies
In this placid darkness, in such desires I wait
As these tears of regret bleed through, all too late
Praying for all things real to die
So I may close my eyes forever
and dream these silent lies
With every regret tormenting me
This silence stabs so deep
With every lie that I dream
I bleed for you as I forsake reality
Lost in these silent lies
Every moment I'm alive I bleed for you
Crying out to heaven, this prison of the mind
Where paradise is truly lost
And blissful lies are all we find
Holding fast but it’s all the same
Misery in life's pitiful game
Cutting deep into these veins, still are my silent lies
How could you die? I lived for you
Now I am lost in these silent lies
Desires fell from your lips
Convictions embrace me as I scream your name
This silence still pierces deep
As this blood spills all for you in vain
This blood spills all in vain
After all these years passed by
I can’t accept that you died
I’m still bleeding deep inside all of these silent lies
Every moment I’m alive, I bleed for you
Silent Lies
