The Broken Vow

Those nights we had and the trust we lost

The sleep that fled me and the heart I lost

It all reminds me just how callous

and heartless the true cowards are

And I write this for the loveless

And for the risks we take

I'll take my love to the grave

As tired and worn it is

I'll take my love to the grave

Bitter and Then Some

Death to cowards, traitors, and empty words

To those adorned with the touch of rose petals

And the blessed gift of forgetfulness

For these are your years and days to outshine

Push on and soar higher

This is your memory, your everything, and the in-between

Push on and soar higher
