Broken
A shard of glass lay broken
Tarnished on the floor
Tainted by blood
Pure no more
The image it once reflected
Now shows a darker tale
The distortion of this red life
Removes the blood stained veil
A shard of glass lay broken
The image now complete
The holes left by the guise
Filled now by the twisted depiction
A view through the eyes of a being
Lost and broken
Whose death is not tragic
Nor seen beyond this glass
Por un cuerpo se queda junto
Cuando se falta su alma
