The stars are silently crying
The stars are silently crying tonight,
Tears rolling down a cold, dark canvas;
Look up from the blinding black,
You'll feel them bite
Your heart, grasp your lungs
Pull out their gasp---- let go of your doubt,
Breathe in------breathe out.
The wind is silently screaming tonight,
Flying in vain to outrun his mind,
Close your eyes he'll knock you down:
Rob your air, rob your sight,
Only trying to protect you;
Listen to the sound---let go of your doubt,
Breathe in-----breathe out.
Who could understand all my aching thoughts,
Who could understand the black hole in
My ribs that sucks and pulls,
My feelings it rots,
And only leaves a blackened ooze
That slowly kills---let go of your doubt,
Breathe in-----breathe out.
Will humankind ever believe the truth?
Or will we instead die by our lies;
We pretend we're good, pretend we're right,
Can't we feel our dead souls weigh in our chests,
Can't we feel darkness envelope the night;
When will it end?---let go of your doubt,
Breathe in ----breathe out.
The stars are silently bleeding tonight,
The raindrops turned scarlet with blood,
Stand in the shower, acknowledge
The blight,
Change will come with it,
I promise you'll see---let go of your doubt,
Breathe in----breathe out.
