Haunted Light

Life, Love and Death

Haunted Light

Don't let go
Whispered words of long ago
After all this time
What keeps us here?

Haunted halls of yesteryear
Hold us here
Watching the blood dry
Your hands seem so clean
The last breath escapes your soul.

Has no one told you
I'm not broken
I am the light
You will never find.

Haunted halls of yesteryear
Bring me back
To this tortured soul
Realizing my greatest fears
Someone here is dying.

Our love this way
Was never meant to be
Our dreams dissolve behind this wall
The flame still burns, my soul still yearns
A child's cry brings new light.
