One Small Tear

Black again covers white
I paint my day
Memories surround me
Reveries still haunt me
Flames of dream
Burst from the ashes
Wearing faces from ages passed
I’ll be changing behind many masks
Until the dusk
Will fade away
New day will break
Running through the fire
Trying to seize desires
Oceans of bygone days
I swim again
I wonder why I still remember
Nothing but pain
I don’t know why
I’m feeling blue
Act like fool
Myself again I want to be
To sleep and dream
Oh set me free
Help to me by myself once more
Simple desires fill my soul
I want to find the hidden truth
Be able to forgive abuse
And reach a place of safety
I’m through with fairy-tales and daydreams
Won’t look for happiness — oh no!
A company of one small tear for nevermore
