Warrior's Heart |
 |
|
"I try to remember to
look up at the stars,
when the day is through
So, someway, somehow
I'm coping on my own."
The warrior lives alone
in a world full of war
and the last moments
of the dead...
and the promises
are never kept.
The night was on fire
and they died into my eyes
anyway.
I came home
and grew old.
"I'm coping on my own." |
