Things you can't forget

Broken hymn book
To sing you to sleep
The sandman to take you
To a place where you dream
Atrocities are all you see
Nightmare in the air
Hellish landscape you can't escape
Innocence lost, they did take

Soft lullabies
Ring with the wind
Bells sway, side to side
But pain filled screams fill the evening sky
Haven your mind is not
Lost in your visions
It was your fault by default
Yet not your decision
Soft lullabies
Echo with your cries

Regret fills your mind
Pain obscures the eyes
Pressure built up beyond your design
Inside you turn blind
It's definition you can not define
Forgiveness you can't find
Inside you slowly rot and die

Silent whispers scream
Recollection in visions obscene
Death seen scenes serene
Mind, the bastion of regret perversely
It is beauty
