No More, No More
No More, No More
This is the last time
A last encore
No more weeping for you
No more, no more
Every time I think
That my tears are done
I find myself on the floor
As the salt water runs
Running down my face
Washing everything away
Away every memory
Of every happy day
Falling into oblivion
Falling running pouring down
Emotions pooling on the ground
A life left there to drown
This is the last time
I promise I swear
The jar is empty
The cupboard is bare
A life stripped down
And swept away
Nothing left to lose
Nothing to give away
Promises that were given
Were given in vain
A heart afflicted
Afflicted again and again
Sliding and falling
Slip sliding away
Hope sighing and whispering
And then fading away
I was wrong so wrong
Wrong in every way
Truth a fearsome warrior
That memories slay
A life slaughtered
Mourned without a wake
Nothing left to give
Nothing left to take
Nothing left but dust
Dust and decay
And when summer rains fall
Its all washed away
Now crying eyes are tired
Tired and sore
Every emotion has washed them
Washed them red raw
So this is the last time
Tears will stain this floor
No more weeping for you
No more, no more

“Do not give what is holy to dogs
Nor throw your pearls before swine,
So that they may never trample them under their feet
And turn around and rip you open.”
– Jesus Christ, Matthew 7:6
