She sheds a tear
He feels wetness on his cheek
He stubs his toe
She feels the pain
Seperated by land and water
A distance of many miles
They feel each other still
They could not stop
Even if they wanted to
Even if they tried
She cries herself to sleep
He wraps his arms around her
Twinkling starscapes
As far as the eye can see
Glittering backdrop
To the wide faced moon
Glistening landscapes
Lights behind shimmering curtains
Of pouring rain
With a cloudless sky?
I watch as life is created
I watch as joy comes to be
I watch as children play
I watch as the world moves on
I watch as people die
I watch as sorrow spreads
I watch as children are beaten
I watch as the world turns blind
I watch without sleep
Come dawn
Come dusk
Blending together
Creating perpetual twilight
Neither day nor night
Moon and sun pass unnoticed
Time ceases to exist
And still the rain falls
And still the stars shine
And still the lights glisten
And still I watch
Fire rips out of the earth
Molten rock spilling into the streets
Waves as tall as buildings
Smash into the land
The sky is blackened
The world will turn to ice
And still we fight
Me and she
We fight
Mountains are formed
By a single swipe of our fists
Kingdoms torn asunder
Crumbling under our battle cry
The world is dying
Screaming in agony
And still we fight
Me and she
We fight
Brother and sister
Born of nature
Tainted by power
Power that has consumed us
Ragnarok
We battle
Ying and yang have clashed
Bringing the world to its knees
And still we fight
Me and she
We fight
And we will die
With pride and dishonour
And we shall go out
In a blaze of gorey
And take everyone with us
We have stopped fighting
No more world to fight over
Single candle flickers
Wavering in the wind
Lighting a small corner
As a piece of paper catches light
As amused the lighter looks on
A small handful of flames
Teased by the whispering wind
Growing and dancing
Twirling and spreading
As awed it's creator stares
Picking up speed
The tempo begins to fly
As one the flames
Leap for the sky
Shocked the arsonist runs
Running and jumping
Crackling and roaring
The flames take this dance
And use it to start soaring
For the fuel there is now no escape
Biting into flesh
The flames yearn for blood
The fires bellow for food
The heat strives for life
The victim now dances
Silouhetted in the window
Stark against the inferno
Shrieking their last shriek
And breathing their last breath
But still they dance
