Whispering Winds

 

 

I hear the silence of the night

Oh, how I hear the autumn wind cry

another time in darken skies

hearts that are breaking 

while standing on wet grounds,

 

Cold empty words 

that kill the spirit 

that cuts deep within the mind 

fear runs into the darkness of one’s soul

hate is in the eyes that roams 

I look around and all I see 

is a world that stands so mean,

 

Evil hearts are all around 

take their stands like a beat-up clown 

in hand in hand another takes a stand

and another one falls to the wet ground

I've looked in the eyes of what is painful

I lived the life of broken dreams 

I see the hate face to face 

while the serpent slithers 

more innocents die,

 

This old darken world of wars

sneaks around with hate and fire in their eyes

love isn't on their side;

traps are being made 

while others are losing their faith 

I hear the silent winds come again 

with so much cries into the night 

blood is being shed with so many dead,

 

Raves fly up deep into the night 

seas are red with the dead

endless sorrows to a world of horrors

of a tomorrow that may never come 

darken stain tears upon the soul that dreams

that keeps the mind to scream.
