Memento Stare
On her death bed
Howling at the moon
Serenity devoured by the demons in bloom
She said
"I wish I could see heaven, Father, but I have sinned
These are cracks within my bones
These are bruises on my skin"
"Am I right? Am I wrong?
Give one reason to go on
I wish I was your perfect ten
I wish I could transcend"
"Do you just stare?
Would you take my hand?
Do you just stare?
Please take my hand"
"Don't just stare
You've shown no mercy
You've watched my pain
A gift-wrapped nothing is all you ever gave"
"A daughter cries, a brother runs
A mother screams in twisted tongues
A father hangs his head in shame
No one left to blame"
