A World in Demise

Decadence

Can you see the sadness in her eyes?

Can you see the rivers of her tears?

The green is getting pale

The trunks are disappearing

The blue is getting turbid

The stars are falling out

The brown is changing color

It’s turning black with putrid odor

The waters are resentful

Their rage has been awakened

Behold for what’s to come

Be sorry for what you have done

Our home will burn vividly

Our skin will feel it deeply

The winds will blow you away

Liberation
(Inspired by Jim Morrison's dark lyrics)

Are you hurt?
Do you know where you are?
Can you remember your pain?
Why don’t you go back?

Come, tell me
What are you feeling?
What are you dreaming?
Is it hard to remember?
Tell me now, tell me later
What's the matter?

Yes, yes, I will tell you
I remember
I can see him, I can feel him
My heart tightens, I’m scared
I'm innocent, he doesn't care

I can’t tell, I can’t tell
He would get me if I do
Is so painful, my little heart!
It can’t stand it
How long will it last?

Don't worry, I will help you
Ease your sadness, let it go!

You will be resentful
You might never trust
But you might get the freedom
You always dreamed of
