Death by Light
Throughout the forests the bells of silence ring, And soon my soundless screaming will begin. Ripped apart through endless torture, My own mind painting out the last of my feeling.
Silence. It screams. On and on, Forever ringing it's bells. Eternally screaming in soundless agony.
It tortures me, My mind is weak'nd. The silence is endless. Nothing pierces the blinding light.
Painful light that pierces my soul, Drains the energy from my body, It sucks the life out of me. Will I survive it this time?
It BURNS! (Forever shining brightly) It SCORCHES MY FLESH! (Light that pierces skin) SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME! (I'm dying) I'M BURNING! (Free my soul!)
[Decress to whisper]
Throughout the forests the bells of silence ring, And soon my soundless screaming will begin. Ripped apart through endless torture, My own mind painting out the last of my feeling.
When
When will I turn around? And see his smiling face? Telling me he loves me, Telling me I’m his.
Time is always against me. Frightened, screaming, left alone. Why won’t he accept me just for Who I am?
Why must I be hiding, Frightened, Of the sun that should give life. I desire to find another place, Where I can finally be myself.
Masks. Are all I have. Hiding, always. Never real. None have seen me as I am… No one can see through me.
Blood, it means nothing. Family ties are broken fast. I’ve seen it happen, No one sees the broken hearts…
The children left alone…
(Musical interlude)
Hidden behind so many masks. Makeup, clothing, sex appeal. Strength, beauty, smiles and gowns. Are only there to hide the tears…
Children cry alone at night. Mothers, Fathers? Can’t you hear them? Crying to you in the night… weeping for a home?
[Cress]
I’ll never turn around, To see his smiling face. Telling me that “I love you.” That is the fate I face.
[Decress]
An eternity, left alone. A curse? A blessing? Both are one… Bleeding tears from deep inside…
Left behind… *whisper* Forgotten.
Dream of Desires
[Gentle piano with soft drum undertones and a pleasing bass backup] [Semi-long intro -mf-]
Falling through the shards of time, Eternities of broken rhyme. Man's fate closely intwined with mine, Forever with our hearts entwined.
[Semi-long musical interlude -mf-]
Dreaming of a broken fate, Humanity's unending hate... The birth, the death, desire to mate, Why won't heaven open it's gates?
[Semi-long musical interlude to cress. -f-]
If god's in control... then why hate me? His own son's blood that set man free, [Heartbroken decress.-p-] Binds me to this earth forever, [next line barely whispered with a crack in voice on last word -pp-] For a sin that caused displeasure.
[Musical turmoil, resolving into -pp- hopeful tune]
Yet today my heart rejoices! I've seen her make her heart's own choices. [Hopeful cress. to -mp-] Choices once belonging to me, Now shall set both our hearts free.
[Hope turns to quiet fear-mp-]
Tears
Tears of pain, Tears of blood, Tears of fire, Tears of love.
I give my heart to you, But you turn it down. My spirit is chained, My body is dead. My love will live on.
Tears of pain, Tears of blood Tears of fire, Tears of love.
I am but a poor fool, Nothing to my name, Nothing here to claim I give you the only thing I have, I have ripped my heart from my breast, Hoping it might reside within your chest.
You have rejected my love, Never knew it was there, Never knew that I cared. And now I’m crying….
Tears of pain, Tears of blood, Tears of fire, Tears of love.
You will never know, How much I care, I took a chance, But not a dare.
Tears of pain, Tears of blood, Tears of fire, Tears of love.
So here I lie, Upon the floor, The sun will rise, I’ll be no more.
If you can hear, This poor fool’s plea. Please don’t forget… My love for thee.
Tears of pain, Tears of blood, Tears of fire, Tears of love.
The sun is rising, I am dying, I don’t have long. These my last thoughts, This my last song.
My soul cries out, With love of you. I won’t forget, Never forget you.
With the last of my strength… I cry:
Tears of pain, Tears of blood, Tears of fire, Tears of love…
