hear our prayer...

Hear this prayer
From a shattered heart
Save our souls
Before we depart
Save us all
Save us all
Before we go

When the sun begins to rise
A hope glows with fiery passion
Something knows
Something grows
Longing for another touch of redemption
Crying before goodbye

There's no answer to our plea
In the dawn, our spirits flee
Nothing left
Nothing sown
Last to die before the dawn

seven petals...

seven petals

seven petals
one cries
the other sighs
two in vain
who sees their pain
a fifth just wilts
falls away like silt
the sixth flies
into the crimson skies
the seventh watches
as by the sun it scorches
and laughingly
beckoningly
another flower grows
