As the shadows of the night crawled in,
I sang the lullaby to my heart
And tried to hold it together,
Refraining from falling apart....
I could hear the sobs,
Breaking the silence of the cold night
And getting lost in the thin air,
Filling my heart with grief and fright...
I raised my eyes to find myself,
Standing in a barren land
The parched land piercing through my skin,
Leaving me empty and estranged....
I wanted to run,
Run from the misery that beheld me,
But the darkness held me close,
Blowing off my memories to the Dead Sea...
As the night flew past,
I tried to look for my heart,
All I could find are the shards of it,
Lying shattered in a pool of blood....
