Tarnished Halo - Pain Confessor

A little girl on the field

With no worries in the world

Shall see a war, a revolution

Even a better tomorrow

New found peace brought you

This all new love and life

You were to have children

Worked hard to provide

Must be so lonely in that darkness

No one will ever know what carries your mind from here to eternity

You can’t quite remember those friendly faces that are near

But so afar, with hearts so close to touch

All clouds have silver lining, yet yours is all black

To keep away all memories and their flowing tears

Your mind now a tarnished halo, that shines while their whole world falls

In all the life’s turmoil you lasted and prevailed

Conquered a new meaning

With grandchildren in your name

Then something burrowed itself into your soul

Veiling the spirit once strong enough to repel war

No one will ever know who takes your mind from here to eternity

You can’t quite remember those friendly faces that are near

But so afar, with hearts so close to touch

All clouds have silver lining, yet yours is all black

To keep away all memories and their flowing tears

Your mind now a tarnished halo, that shines while their whole world falls

And as the rust eats away last hope, the walls come down and you see

Your knight in shining armor

Taken from you so long ago

Why were you left behind to suffer

In this accursed limbo

Laying at the end of the line

Waiting for him to come

Your mind now a shining halo

That shines when they keep you close to heart

As the rust slowly fades away

And the young girl falls to sleep
