In a world, by Eclipse of the Moon Subscribe to rss feed for Eclipse of the Moon

In a world where no one cares, she sits alone under the
stairs,

While people pass and no one cares.

Not even a hello or how are you.

So say good-bye, this girl no longer exists.

For in a world so cruel she can no longer live.

And while the blood pools at her feet, 

one lone person stops in the street.

he stops her bleeding and helps her up,

saying it's not time to die, come and live with me for a
while.

But low and behold it's just a dream, and her life seeps out
to puddle at her feet.

she takes one final look and then she weeps.

for there in the street is the man in her dreams.

and with her final breath she calls to him and says,

people in this world are cruel but please stay bright and
true.

Do what I cannot and chase away all this gloom.

Give people a chance to love again, to make this a place in
heaven.

So people don't have to die alone, but with those they love,
in their own rooms

Then she sighs and closes her eyes, to nevermore see the
skies.

Her memories remain just the same, to remind people of that
lost name.

And when her body fades out of sight there is a sign,
saying,

Love yourself and your neighbor and all this gloom will melt
away.

Her final words can still be heard, just like bells, soft,
but true.

So remember her and never forget her words can save an
entire world.
