When Sparrows Fall
Sparrows bleed as trumpets scream
They fall to kiss the earth
Crimson proof it's not a dream
For death has given birth
Darkness smiles with broken wings
A feathered wake of sorts
When death is born no one sings
For joy somehow distorts
Devils dance and act a fool
Just barely out of sight
Shadows watch and start to drool
While laughing at the light
Empty tears, for no one cares
It happens every day
Far away an angel stares
There's nothing left to say
Twisted fate, we don't ask why
For death will come to all
When death is born, we must die
As sparrows start to fall
