Fleeting Joy

May I stand once more in joy No The world is crashing down Shaking the ground Thunder cracks the sky As I break down and cry Forgotten is my reason to hug and kiss How did it come to this The joy that was our eyes meeting once more Has been replaced with bloody gore You and I we once felt so coy Now all that is left is fleeting joy The trees, they still whisper But I can no longer understand them The water I drink from has become too deep I have fallen into the well The joy that was our eyes meeting once more Has been replaced with bloody gore You and I we once felt so coy Now all that is left is fleeting joy The joy that was our eyes meeting once more Has been replaced with bloody gore You and I we once felt so coy Now all that is left is fleeting joy The miles that we have travelled And the things we have seen It seems clear to me now That at some point we took a wrong turn The joy that was our eyes meeting once more Has been replaced with bloody gore You and I we once felt so coy Now all that is left is fleeting joy The joy that was our eyes meeting once more Has been replaced with bloody gore You and I we once felt so coy Now all that is left is fleeting joy When the morning comes for me Will it be with bright sun so that I can see Or will I have to wander as a wayward son In a dark fog that smells like sulfur and smoke from a gun The joy that was our eyes meeting once more Has been replaced with bloody gore You and I we once felt so coy Now all that is left is fleeting joy The joy that was our eyes meeting once more Has been replaced with bloody gore You and I we once felt so coy Now all that is left is fleeting joy
