A heart once held in promise
Yearning for the sun and hope
Cast out into the deep
A long forgotten lake
So the heart, turned, to stone
Iced over in an endless winter
In a land where no thing dwells
And no one has ever seen
Unloved descent into hatred
So the heart, turned, to stone
An unshining sun,
And neverending snow
Cruelty and depression is law
Trust and honour have died
A long journey into the murk
So the heart, turned, to stone
For a soul no one noticed
The world around set in decay
Plague infected, mortality lost
Slashed like a razor through the pulse
Slashed, the pulse
