a face so weathered and abused   eyes are constant / wide open but blind   desperately seeking   with every grasp falling farther   screams break the silence   his words echo, haunting every move   i never heard your heart break   as it fell from my hands   your tears are mine   dying with every empty night / so lucid now   selfish ambitions shielded truth   saving myself i watched you fall   and with this blade i close my eyes   will my blood rushing save your life   you bear the force of every storm   with blessed grace   you are the river, i am the rain
