Breaking bones
Shattered silver
Tortured silence
Don't remember

Shards of glass along the floor
Padded walls and bolted doors
Echoed laugh down silent halls
Faces seen within the walls

Puzzle pieces in your hand
Finery no longer grand
Hopeless warrior, refuse to die
Corpse that screams of fatal lies

Breaking bones
Shattered silver
Tortured silence
Don't remember

Eyes so empty, lost in wrath
Assemble now to form the Cast
Players act upon life's stage
Deadly sorrow, mindless rage

Struggles to recall "back then"
Losing humanity once again
Power gained in fearsome spite
Tainted victory without a fight

Breaking bones
Shattered silver
Tortured silence
Don't remember

Block the love within your soul
Silent purpose, heads will roll
Bloody wake where no one cries
Innocence in manic eyes

Drooping vultures do their will
Shining blade that won't be still
Killing-fever running wild
Followed by the hopeless child

Breaking bones
Shattered silver
Tortured silence
Don't remember

Existence dead, yet still alive
(Breaking bones)
Final rest for now denied
(Shattered silver)
Weary slave to endless Fate
(Tortured silence)
No forgiveness, it's too late
(Don't remember)

Don't remember
Don't remember

Awesome! This is a great song/poem. Your rhythm and rhyme were excellent. When I write while sleep deprived it always ends up being the exact opposite of what I intended to create.
