Silent Towers

We turn away and erase the pain
Let it lie in the deepest shades of guilt and blame
Cover it under these chords so shallow
Hide it between lines so narrow.

But the words are just too strong to speak
They will only destroy us
Like two towers we stand
Stand strong, but hurt
Until we crash down with only one word.

Where is the end of these emerald woods
The first light of the new morning?
Have we walked too far in this gloom
To sense the pure heart of doom?

We left our souls in the cutting room
And play the roles of silent killers
Here we stand at the edge of truth
And still let the cold paint our skin
And blinded we step straight back into hell.

But the words are just too strong to speak
They will only destroy us
Like two towers we stand
Stand strong, but hurt
Until we crash down with only one word.
