Black as night, rivers fall from lost eyes
Black as night, rivers fall from lost eyes
Searching for missing items tossed from their lives
They long to take back the fears that have stolen them complete
Cursing the rows that speak on the other side
Turned away and distracted, left forgotten to drown
Given no solace, and no keep to store them away
Not an answer is given to satisfy their longing desires
Must they always trap themselves within the unknown
Break that pain which fractures your heart
So the question is how, although it seems there's no one to ask
But it's there somewhere, and waiting is a painful game
Always search for the answer, don't entertain a problem
Where ash is stored has examples to speak
Remembered and stored, for you to discover within
Your tales share the same beginning, and there's no sense of shame
Of swallowing the solution conceived by one like your own
Our flesh is all the same, the origins alike
All differences and traits reside only inside
And thus can be learned, when given a glance
So Let curiosity's looking glass break open your world
