Silent Elegy

[Verse] Silent whispers echo loud In the shadows of the night Echoes speak in veils of shroud Haunting dreams so tight [Verse] Curtains rise the stage is grim Puppets dance in sorrow’s hymn Candles flicker light so dim Lost souls sing in requiem [Chorus] Blackened skies above the stage Life's a book with empty page Phantom pain and silent rage Ashes fly from life's cruel cage [Bridge] Twilight dances on the floor Specters wail from every pore Mystic violins they soar Through the heart that begs for more [Verse] Drifting souls in velvet sea Drowning in their misery Wings are clipped no chance to flee Poetry in agony [Chorus] Blackened skies above the stage Life's a book with empty page Phantom pain and silent rage Ashes fly from life's cruel cage
