When I am sad
I cannot cry
It makes me mad
That I live a lie.
Hide your dream in your eyes
Since he just goes and dies.
Until tears come falling
Onto your sullied heart
I wish I could start bawling
To complete my part.
Tears consume us all
In times of sadness
Like a shadow ready to fall
A city in blackness.
If I touch a burning candle, I can feel no pain
In the night or in the day, it’s all the same
I can feel my heart is aching
Forevermore and breaking
It feels like I am dead
For I have no tears left to shed.
My emotions are here
There’s nothing I fear
Though I cannot cry
I can still die.
This secret is like sand
Kept in the palm of my hand
Secrets are held in the dawn
Don’t let yourself become a pawn.
My emotions are gatekeepers
Like worthy grim reapers
Trustworthy without doubt
Because that’s what it’s all about.
I pray for tears
An answer to my fears
Yet no one answers me
As I bow down on my knee.
No shout of any sort will reach
The merciless gods above the sky
For they can no longer teach
Us humans to cry.
The moonlight
Which exposes sadness
Hovers above the night
Plunging us in blackness.
Tears no longer fall
On the sullied earth
I feel like a doll
Left at the heart of the hearth.
Depression
Coldly illuminated
First impression
Tears accumulated.
Despair and the future
Hold no tears in store for me
Letting me grow and mature
Letting me see and be.
Turning the sadness you gave me into a sign
I go through the silence of the pale night
And though I was not at all fine
I had people ready to fight.
Like in chess, people are my pawns
The event of every day’s breaking dawns.
It feels like I am dead
For I have no tears left to shed.
If I touch a burning candle, I can feel no pain
In the night or in the day, it’s all the same
I can feel my heart is aching
Forevermore and breaking
It feels like I am dead
For I have no tears left to shed.
