How many lost souls cry out tonight?
Thousands of hearts' fragmented plight,
breaking in two beyond the light;
hiding in fear's shadows... out of sight
Tormented minds endlessly churning
Rivers of tears; molten lava falling
Memory's cruel whispers' torridly taunting
Ignored, desperate pleas... lovers calling
Heartbreak-venom pulsing around veins
Splintered dreams piercing sleep's fragile veil
Insomnia sick, into the abyss they sail
Praying reconciliation... but to no avail
