Ballad

Numbers roll around in her head

As the clock reads early hour sleeplessness

Listen as the Ballad of Death plays through the room

Look at all of her achievements she's made

Hanging on the walls and sitting on wooden shelves

Bookcases lined with false happiness

Tales of fulfillment from A to Z

Trying to escape her reality

Three years past, her fate set in stone

She listens as the violin plays one last solo

Before her soul is taken down in grief and guilt

A trumpet wails in triumph, then tragedy

There, her life has been found

Stained on the sheets and pooling on the floor

Darkness takes her as she is

With one last breath she faces her match

The final battle has begun

Now listen as the symphony cries out loud

Its conductor fading away in the darkness

As the Ballad of Death still plays
