Flowers

Cold are the winds when I am alone
Drowning to the screams I hear inside
Cursed be the love denied
Oh, I hide my face from passers-by
Still I hear that bitter goodbye
All those shallow words of hope
Say, you're trying to save my, save my soul
Like flowers they wither away
Nothing's real on these days of pain
Like flowers they wither away
Life and death is one and the same
'til the river runs red like blood
Here I lie and curse the gods
Those who made me and left me die
Whose wars rage under blackened skies
Oh, I hide my scars from passers-by
No one will see me down and defiled
All those shallow words of hope
Say, you're trying to save my, save my soul
Like flowers they wither away
Life and death is one and the same
In the ruins I am doomed to dwell
Petrified, seen the depths of Hell
Like flowers they wither away
With dread I face the coming day
