Sorrow lyrics
by Flyleaf



Sometimes life seems to quiet into paralyzing silence

Like the moonless dark, meant to make me strong.

Familiar breath of my old lies

Changed the color in my eyes

Soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by



Sorrow lasts through this night

I'll take this piece of you, and hold for all eternity

For just one second I felt whole... as you flew right through me.



Left alone with only reflections of the memory

To face the ugly girl that's smothering me.

Sitting closer than my pain...

He knew each tear before it came,

And soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by



We kiss each other one more time

And sing this lie that's half way mine

The sword is slicing through the questions so I won't be fooled

By his angel light..



Sorrow lasts through this night

I'll take this piece of you and for all eternity

For just one second I felt whole as you flew right though me

And up into the stars

Joy will come.
