Breaking Hearts On Valentine's Day

Red roses all around The red stains on the ground He came to break hearts On Valentine's Day Bright hearts full of ambition Broken by rapid ammunition He came to break hearts On Valentine's Day He came to break hearts On Valentine's Day In this fall before spring's bloom Death's rise did plume And hearts were broken On Valentine's Day To love's lost vision Execrated by incision He came to break hearts On Valentine's Day It is with great anger That I lay my anchor In this sea of tears And as I sit silent Upon the calm of carnage I look to the dome on the ridge And with death's plume, at my sail I shall land with force, no fail In that dome's rotunda Carrying the rage of a nation Carrying the rage of a nation
