A Glimmer of Hope in a Dying World

Soft spoken melodies whisper my fears

heartbroken feelings dry up my tears

and when all is lost I'll swallow my pride

and say bitterly, yes I failed, but I tried

How do I open my heart to this world

when everyone in it drowns me in words

hopelessly hopeful you'll realize this dream

and sew up the edges repairing my seams

If nothing is forgotten but all is lost

I'll take a chance on this wayward, star crossed

A love so tragic it's end drawing near

please don't forget me as you leave me standing here
