And there alone, without a friend, she sheds her final tear
Her strength, love and happiness, murdered by their hate
The lies and deceit have filled her up and now have sealed her fate

Quiet and alone, engulfed in a shadow
A dark, silent, consuming shadow
Its arms they bind her, its comfort she craves
Darkness overwhelms her, like soft calming waves

The shadow of dusk whispers, but silence
It carries her away from the pain and the violence
The cruel blackened world fades into grayness
The life she once had has left her nameless

The room now more than empty, all life has left it bare
The body that once was living has fallen in despair
No one will ever find her there; her tear will not be shared
They wont have know the hopes she had because no one ever cared.

She stands in the empty room, the darkness now creeps near
And there alone, without a friend, she sheds her final tear
Her strength, love and happiness, murdered by their hate
The lies and deceit have filled her up and now have sealed her fate

Quiet and alone, engulfed in a shadow
A dark, silent, consuming shadow
Its arms they bind her, its comfort she craves
Darkness overwhelms her, like soft calming waves

The shadow of dusk whispers, but silence
It carries her away from the pain and the violence
The cruel blackened world fades into grayness
The life she once had has left her nameless

The room now more than empty, all life has left it bare
The body that once was living has fallen in despair
No one will ever find her there; her tear will not be shared
They wont have know the hopes she had because no one ever cared.
