Dark Skies Make For Tired Eyes by emo_boy
Intro
There's red showing tonight
Black is searing through
Verse 1
I begged you to stay
I had answers for every excuse
But you shrugged them off you shoulders like raindrops unrequested
Such a diplomatic way to refuse
I had opened my heart
Made myself so vulnerable
But you're so unaproachably hard
And terrifyingly miserable
Chorus
The red in the sunset,
the blood you drained from my heart
The black night sky,
The void you ripped in me you ripped apart
Verse 2
Dark skies make for tired eyes
You won't open up to me
But I can see your colors now
Through dusguise of beauty
After death of heart comes
infection and disease
if not disected and cremated
till nothing of you remains
best of luck and get to nominating!
Answer:
I was waiting for a really great song to come along, as one now has:
Overtake Me by Skeeter:
You walked the earth
And you walked the sea
You called my name
You spoke to me
But why is it so hard
To hear you now?
Show me your side
Show me the holes in your hands
[chorus]
Blind my eyes
And open my heart
Direct my feet to follow you
Lord, overtake me
Stick a spear
In my skeptic side
I said I'd follow you
I might have lied
Rock in hand
And plank in eye
I condemn my brother
I'm a judgemental hypocrite
Oh Lord, complete in me
Here unto eternity
This good work that you began in me
Answer:
"Of Broken Wings and Mid-Summer Winds"
by Mattlock
I don't think we'll get out of this hell
And I wish you could be sorry about that
Honest apologies are drastically different
From when run through the mind and run in words
And after all this, I'd like to see you
Learn to fly on your broken wings
In your picture perfect sky
On these mid-summer winds
Your broken halo could be a blessing
If you'd understand why it's there
People would overestimate you without it
Oh, imperfect soul I've grown to love
Pull down the brightest star
Because you definately deserve it
Remember that the end is far
Far from where we are, my friend
