The Sweetest Good-Bye

There's a beauty somewhere amidst the flames,
unfolding splendor inside the pain.
Something sweet from all the tears,
a broken pearl from pretty fears.

A way to hope for nothing more...
the way life burns down to the core.
Freedom from the tattered skies;
anguish in an angel's cries.

Saving evil from purest claws,
wrong the rights and break your laws.
Sell yourself to win a throne;
an immortal soul can be your own.

A river of blood that gives you life...
the dreams that flow from happy knife.
A phoenix's tears which cannot heal,
a broken heart that cannot feel.

Blinded eyes which only see,
the truth, a lie to set you free.
Turn left into the right of way,
go down and up into the day.

The light behind the blackest night,
rustling as you take to flight.
Through the storm and in the sky...
the sweetest way to say good-bye.
