Reborn
When each tear falls from your face of sadness
To spill upon the earthen floor of time
They'll flow with the relentless winds of madness
And fall into hellish worlds you must climb
In this blackness, you must willingly go
Face terrible anguish from your desire
To find its burning pit you'll come to know
As your heart's blood burns in a blaze of fire
To cleanse your ashen soul so it returns
With charred teary pages of love to fold
To keep in the library of your burns
With books of lasting scars from love that's old
Goodbyes are the fingers that rip the soul
To face love's depths of hell can make you whole
