Last Screams

After three a.m.
Walking in forsaken garden
Silver leaves they fall and kiss
Hallowed pale skin
That the moonlight bathes
Hair and cravat
Blown in the crying wind
I stay the fear that I'll forget

No matter how brave we are
In cold like this hearts will freeze

I must stand tall
I must seem strong
They may say the
Last screams loudest
I won't make a sound

Wrestle with the winter's peak
Shuddering, stumbling
Limbs that creak and bow to be
A trellis above your head
So weary but alive
But trembling you sometime soon
Will succumb to it
And leave this behind

No matter how brave we are
In cold like this hearts will freeze

I must stand tall
I must seem strong
They may say the
Last screams loudest
I won't make a sound

I must stand tall
No matter the shadow
Of black showers
I must seem strong
Every minute of
Every single hour
They may say the
Last screams loudest
I won't make a sound

I must stand tall
No matter the shadow
Of black showers
I must seem strong
Every minute of
Every single hour
They may say the
Last screams loudest
I won't make a sound
