Dead Eyes Cry Tears That Won'T Dry

The moon you see Is what gave him hope The moon you see Is what lit his path Tears lost in the dark Dreams broken in the night Love ripped apart A life dying yet still alive The daylight cast a shadow that grew The river laughed as it listened to the sorrow of another human fool The air tasted of death The sun shone but remained cool Fate played out its game She was held back from him Dead eyes cried tears that won't dry, silent screams echoed in the night Love must die for a lie, love must be hard, to demand such sacrifice Love in war is for fools Why must love in war be so very cruel?
