The King of Paper Soldiers
Scream from your heart to the king of paper soldiers. The beauty of love crashes and smolders. The freedom of corruption the influence of greed. The innocent garden wilts and plants a new seed. The miserable orchard overwhelms the soul. A life of material, a heart of coal. Needles coated in fire and ink. The mind perforated, and starting to sink. Broken wings, unable to fly. The emotions and heart, they all just lie. Losing yourself before your eyes, you empty your lungs and the fire slowly dies. A simple marionette, collecting dust in a corner. The strings intact, the movement in order. Candles climbing in the sky. The sun is a spot, and starts to sigh. Musical boxes, playing in a broken tune. Just like the clouds, the stars, and moon.
