Lyrics
Once Upon a time
there was a tear that lived in fear
from year to year
and never could find time to cry
he stayed inside while people died
from homicide or suicide
he kept his pride to
persevere
Up to the edge and back away
just like the tides of yesterday
from no emotion would he sway
until the day of his depart
a single word tore him apart
and a thunderstorm poured
from his heart
-
in from the wind was born a sigh
who gave releif to all who lied
but never could see eye to ey
she lived in sin to find her prey
thru thick and thin would she betray
those left behind in dissarry
with every breath there came releif
from all the lies that lay beneath
though everyone still lived in greif
day after day she lived a louf
until the night blew in the truth
her giant sigh blew off the roof
-
out from a flame there jumped a scream
who lost it's way from a terrible dream
and everywhere caused outrageous scenes
for many year he walked the streets
looking for his victums to mistreat
still feeling lost and incomplete
this wretched scream grew ever fierce
straight thu the heart his words could pierce
devastating all with words like spears
till' the lady bird sang songs of peace
that scream had heard and felt release
once hatefull words now masterpiece
