Ballad of the Broken

In your eyes there lies a song

It plays quietly in the background

This song that never ends

It's the sound of your grief

But the song must carry on

For it will bring you salvation

Your eyes show me your pain

When music is all around you

But you don't hear a single note

For the beat of your heart

The lyrics to your life

And the melody of your soul

Drown it out with it's own sad tune

And after your eyes have shed tears

The Symphony of Sorrow plays on

Getting louder with every step that you take

It will break you, whichever decision you make

But this is what's saving you

As it will give you another day

To dance to the rythmn of Despair
