Skeletons Bleed

"SKELETONS BLEED" black roses fight for air they'll never bloom while the weeds grow out of arrogance skeletons bleed skies blood red clouds lose faith the darkness is the world for many skeletons bleed what are you waiting for? what are we waiting for? the days ahead fall short to the blackest of nights skeletons bleed rainbows stand broken like glass on a broken frame the faces have no names the names have no faces skeletons bleed they were taken from me I'll ask, "How do you do?" you must never forget to you both, I love you skeletons bleed as they stand ready to fight the tears never came oh, how they've grown I love them more than they'll ever know soon their faces will be mine and they'll carry it with pride as the skeletons bleed in this forlorn world.
