Dead together

So pretty, so smart
So dark, so dead
observe the crown 
upon his head

In faded glory
he wastes away
free to flail, in 
hell he'll play

his eyes don't turn
his neck just sweats
a lesson in fear
in darkness it gets

colder and he fears
that it's just pretend
holding onto his hope that
the darkness can mend

he turns over and over
in gritting remorse
darkness in flames
he reaches in course

A creature from hell
blessed by the land
he shatters his crown
in victory and

green fields sweep among him
blue waves all around
tiny blue houses
no pity in town

He wonders what he'll feel
when love goes away
the fields will expire now
the darkness of day
