Hope (Here, Only Pain Exists)

A whisper, a breeze, as the day withdraws
Into the dark, to be reborn
And night begins its subterfuge
Upon the minds of me and you

Creaking trees serenade the night
Veiled in ghostly pale moonlight
Their moaning limbs stretched, scratch the sky
As yesterday limps off to die

Under the moth eaten veil of night
Spying stars betrayed by their own light
A moon, that silver warrior, bold
A star unto which our wishes, sold

Watch down with unblinking eye
Unmasked beyond the asphalt skies
Into the head of man and boy
To begin the minds spectral assault

Dreaming eyelids flutter, dance
Taken by a dream romance
A chance, a glimpse, of happiness
Perchance to dream, what life is this?

We hide behind our dreams, our lies
To give some meaning to our lives
Lost inside our own abyss
Here, Only Pain Exists
