The Last Sunset

There is no escape from reality
All the harsh words and the agony
Night after night
That hand rises to strike again
And this innocent girl
Takes the blame
Behind those eyes of anxiety
Lies a hope of a world in serenity
There's no room for terror
No place for all that she fears
No striking hands
A realm free from tears

So she waits for the night to fly away
The first light of the morning to soothe the pain
A silent prayer calls for the day
For the guardian angel to take her away

Another home that's broken
No hope for peace or love
Just violence
The heart of this girl is broken
All she can do is wait for the end

The night falls
She hides under the stairs
A voice full of range
Calls upon her name

Blood flows on the floor
A knife falls from a trembling hand
Eyes full of tears
Stare at the pool and the lying man
What has she done
She don't quite understand
She looks at her hands
She has just killed a man

And as the night flies away
The first light of the morning reveals the stains
Is this the price she had to pay
She smiles at the angel that killed the pain

Now the future's uncertain
But she looks ahead without the pain
Her heart is still broken
But she sees the Sun through the rain

The future may be uncertain
But she looks ahead without the pain
Her heart is still broken
But she knows the Sun will shine again
