Like the lives that only live for the love they haven't found
A single soul is searching for peace in the hell of lies
Like the fire burning in the pit of insanity's home
A single life is barely controlled by the bounds of being alone

Like dreams that only dreamed of the dark called death
A single shadowed dance gave life to her last breath
Like the sun setting fire to the earth when it leaves
A single brightened glance gave her peace when she last breathed

There are lives that only live for the love they haven't found  
But still their broken hearts are too shy to make a sound.
There are fears that only frighten when the soul is bound
And only a single fear could always make her drown

There are dreams that only dream of the dark called death
But only a single tear will echo her life long debt
There are songs only sung when one draws their last breath
And then a single weeping child is all that is left
