Tears and Smiles (Angel of Sadness)
I shall watch
And I shall laugh
I shall hold my last breath before I die
And released it with smiles of one last gasp!
Once again in this solemn place we meet
Perhaps I came to bring the battle to our feet
Carry on with these memories of time
Presents of eternity
Perhaps I've been away for way to long
But I'm here to present a scenery through rhymes
Just maybe I could substitute my misery
In exchange for the essience of suffering internal
A cast I miss so dearly
Now in my moments of less truimph my enemies fear me
So open to a blind side
I kind of figured
That white chariot would be a kind ride
These heavenly possessions become demonic
Seems my obession
Has been plagued with something worse than bubonic
A ball and chain pronounced as life
I suddenly recall
A pain that accounts for living twice
Who knows the means of how this came to be
Still it's plain to see
That somehow your presence remains in me
Will I live To see my children make similiar mistakes?
It's a mystery indeed, But somehow I can see myself
Getting away with a small portion of fate
Things will never change
Yet I'm blessed and still living
Angels forever seem strange
Who would've guessed that this life was given
Still my presence is only here to retrieve a promise
In which we each believe
But no sooner was it granted it was stripped from us
So forgive us for our sins
Spare us our grace
As we open our eyes to witness the END
I shall watch
And I shall laugh
I shall hold my last breath before I die,
And released it with smiles of one last gasp!
