As the World Shakes Below

As the world shakes below empty,broken homes We hold close to use those who stand alone Draw lines against those who let them go The winds perish lands from under our feet Yet we reach out to hands of old and weak Lips are silenced but their eyes still speak In the buds of life is the seed of trust In the midst of evil is passion and lust Surrender of love is nothing but pain Memory of vengeance is written in vain On shadows of my mind lies pure ecstasy Success is the peace bought within me Regret is the past almost forgotten to bury
