Choir of Lovers' Demise

Another dreamer shakes awake
By the coldhearted hands
Of a love called fate
And in his dream,
He begins to sing,
The song of love,
Surreal as it seems


One more heart's ripped out,
Still bloody and beating
And as she fades
Away she's singing
The song of love,
So hollow and eerie


One more angel's
Wings are ripped off,
Handed back to her,
With a smirk and a scoff
And Heaven's child sings the song
Of love,
A song so mortal and wrong


Again a mother takes a beating,
She falls to the floor,
Bruised and weeping
And curled in the corner,
Her child  is singing
The song of love,
Demented and fright'ning


And once again,
The sun shall rise,
And gleam on the earth,
While in the skies
The lovers sing
In the choir of sighs,
The song of love,
Of their demise
