Broken Promise

LEAVES CHANGE FROM REDS TO BLACKS 
TRUTH AND HONESTY HER LOVER LACKS 
HE TOOK HER HEART,BROKE IT IN TWO 
WHAT ELSE WAS SHE SUPPOSED TO DO 
HE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS AT STAKE 
AND FOR THAT HER LIFE SHE DID TAKE 
NOBODY WOULD MISS HER WHEN GONE 
EVERYTHING SEEMED TO ALWAYS BE WRONG 
AS SHE WATCHED FROM WORLDS ABOVE 
NEEDLES AND TUBES INTO HER THEY SHOVED 
HER HEART GAVE ITS VERY LAST BEAT 
SHE HAD GIVEN INTO THE DEVILS DEFEAT 
THEY LOWERED THE RED AND BLACK CASKET INTO THE GROUND 
WHILE FAMILY AND FRIENDS GATHERED AROUND 
FIRST IN LINE HAPPENED TO BE HIM 
HIS FEELINGS FOR HER NO LONGER DIM 
UNFORTUNATELY IT CANNOT BE UNDONE 
SHE WILL FOREVER AND ALWAYS BE GONE 
NOW SHE COMMITTED THE ULTIMATE CRIME 
FOR THAT HE HAS TO DO THE TIME 
HE KNEELS BY THE CASKET,BEGINS TO PRAY 
THAT SHE'LL WATCH OVER HIM DAY AFTER DAY 
CERTAINLY HER HE WILL UNDOUBTEDLY MISS 
THE PAYMENT FOR HIS BROKEN PROMISE

Why Is...

WHY IS.... 
THE HEART SUCH A FRAGILE THING 
WHY IS.... 
PAIN THE ONLY THING IT'LL BRING 
WHY IS.... 
LIFE FULL OF HATE AND ALL THIS DEATH 
WHY IS.... 
IT SO DIFFICULT TO TAKE THE LAST BREATH 
WHY IS.... 
THIS ENORMOUS WORLD SPINNING AROUND 
WHY IS.... 
IT THAT IF IT DIDN'T WE'D FALL TO THE GROUND 
WHY IS.... 
MOTHER NATURE ALWAYS STRUGGLING TO SURVIVE 
WHY IS.... 
SHE CONTINUOUSLY FAILING TO STRIVE 
WHY IS.... 
IT THAT THESE QUESTIONS I ASK 
WHY IS.... 
MY FEAR ONLY THAT I'LL ALWAYS WEAR THIS MASK 
WHY IS.... 
THIS THE ONLY REASON I ASK WHY?
