Helpless and alone, In the emptiness of bones. A year has been and gone, Beating a heart that can't go on. Eyes that stare through the haze, To find a place to call her own. Poison flows through the vein, A deep regret begins to fade. The day takes a hold, An iron grip that breaks the mould. Tears that stain an ageing face, And pave the way; a fall from grace. Searching for strangled hope, Clutching at my throat. Time to mourn for the weak, Leave the wires that tie you down. Silence is killing unsaid words. Ten voices that can't be heard. I yearn to hear her speak, To say something, so I can breathe. Silence is killing unsaid words. Ten voices that can't be heard. Listen - I heard her speak, "I miss him. Now let me leave."
