The Dark Truth
Once upon a legend
On a day that time forgot
I felt my heart cease beating
And I knew the world had stopped
No wind stirred in the treetops
No more sweet flowers growing
No waves upon the oceans
The rivers were not flowing
The moon lost in the heavens
No place for her to go
Forever left in darkness
No light for the world below
Dawn is never coming here
No new day is being born
The sun will not be rising
Night will not turn into morn
Caught in a painful silence
All earthly life is stilled
The source of this disaster
Is a promise unfulfilled
The promise that you made me
The cruel game you played
The dark truth echoes bleakly
In the heart that you betrayed
