Echoes

Echoes
By: Twisted Heart

The rustle of forgotten words ring clear against the mind
The thunder of a heartbeat's song lies stripped and so unkind
A whisper verbrates in the soul then holds strong til the end
Unclosed upon the moon tonight and so in need of friends

A simple sound that rises high then sinks low in the wind
Comes now in solace whimpers for time to take and mend
The clash of mountains tarnished unstirred by winter's breeze
Resounds the cry of broken hearts and also broken dreams.

Against the moon we hide in fear the trueth of wishful souls
The many times we cried for love but lost our tightened hold
For life has dealt a hand of pain that seems so hard to face
It leaves our heart in echoes without light or without grace.

Still... sometimes in the heat of pain against the starry sky
We hear the sound of hope and faith that somehow gets us by
Another day we find the strength to face when all seems gone
Within the heart of echoes we rise up and carry on.
