Favorite Quote:
''To die to sleep; to sleep, perchance to dream."


The trust has gone,
Let lies unfold
Let never the straight-out truth be told
Let us live as complete strangers
Alone as souls, aware of dangers
Let lights go out
In death of night
Let cruel-tongued birds
To aid our flight
Let curtains close
On our brutal show
Let the audience bask
In nostalgic glow
The trust has gone
Let us find our way
Let never the thunder
Lead minds astray
Let willows weep
Let flowers die
For time is right
And end is nigh
The trust is gone
No more can we take
As we stand on life itself,
We shake
Let people die
Lie them cold and rotten
And the times of peace,
Let them be forgotten
As bells, they toll
Echo from the lake
Let your final wish
Be your worst mistake
Let us wipe off the smiles
Our expressions, so fake
Let us lose the chances
We did not take
Let the world unravel
In a holy shade:
The chances we lost,
The choices we made
Let the riches fall,
No losses, no gains
Dreams fall apart
And leave no remains
