Shyft - Cry

from Gray by Red Ankh

/

lyrics

Sorrow exists only in our minds
Emptiness makes us easier to fill
I admit that I see out of a narrow mind
I feel I must destroy my enemy to see my
Love stand by my side again

Every one else has failed her in the past
I wish to stand where they have fallen, to make this trust last
I did not know then, but in side her mind
She swore that she would never cry
And nor will I

As she stood and watched her brother die
She swore that she would never cry
'There are lives more wretched than mine'
And all ill things will pass in time
All great things may come undone
Enough loss can take down any one.
But now she stands strong since she can not run
She will not back down until the deed is done

I do not care about what I have left to lose
For emptiness makes us easier to fill
I admit that I can not make the best end, but I must
Destroy my worst enemy to save my best friend

There are times when I wish to just give in
And succumb to my enemy, just let that bitch win
I have felt my worst, like I can not surivive
She swore that she would never cry
And nor will I

As she stood and watched her brother die
She swore that she would never cry
'There are lives more wretched than mine'
And all ill things will pass in time
All great things may come undone
Enough loss can take down any one.
But now she stands strong since she can not run
She will not back down until the deed is done

I felt less and paid with half of my mind
We have both split and built the other kind
There are lives more wretched than mine
But I fear more ill things are growing inside
This great world has come undone
I carry the only key to save every one
Now I will fight to the end, I will not run
I will stand by her until our love has won

I will try to find the strength inside my mind
She swore that she would never cry
And nor will I

She stood and watched her brother die
She swore that she would never cry
'There are lives more wretched than mine'
And all ill things will pass in time
All great things may come undone
Enough loss can take down any one.
But now she stands strong since she can not run
She will not back down until the deed is done

I felt less and paid with half of my mind
We have both split and built the other kind
There are lives more wretched than mine
But I fear more ill things are growing inside
This great world has come undone
I carry the only key to save every one
Now I will fight to the end, I will not run
I will stand by her until our love has won

I can sense the sadness in your eyes
But, darling, this is not your kind of life
