Cry Me a River

Cry me a river
For these rivers from ages of darkness
Have run dry
So my dear stranger
Cry me a river
They well up these rusty eyes
For they’ve only seen decades of hatred
With only one wish of a wishful heart
To die with a smile
For there will be some one who will
Cry me a river
For the land is too red with blood spilled
The trees have skeletons for fruits
And the sky growls in anger and rage
In this mist of hell’s relentless fury
Cry me a river
For it’s been too long
Living in a loveless land
Under a red suns and a dreamless nights
Give me a reason
To believe in the world beyond
Full of love and liking
Give me a reason
To die with a smile
So my dear stranger…cry me a river
