In This Silent Agony, Tears Flow As a Raging Flood
In This Silent Agony, Tears Flow As A Raging Flood
In this silent agony, tears flow like a raging flood
bluish storm enters to poison this aching blood
beg I, no pain, no more pain, send heartaches no more
no light exists, I weep upon dire desperation's floors
I feel the lonely, icy deep cuts made against the grain
lamenting nightmares of this never-ending pain,
this dying soul, its dreams now panes of shattered glass
beat I on this wall, as sorrows allow no hope to pass.
In this silent storm, chilling blues- crying spirit invades
life now has no norm, this world canceled its parade
dawn its beauty now denies, its soul breaks and flays
gone are loving and sweet joy, deeper are life's dark and grays
I reach in the dying of the light, no hand do I find
there is sad emptiness, tortures of every kind,
talking to the heavens, their silence this soul slays
hold I, love's empty chalice, as dying soul falls and prays.
In this silent agony tears flow as a raging flood
bluish storm enters to poison this aching blood
no more pain, no more pain, please send heartaches no more
there is no happiness, I weep on desperation's floors.
