Behind the Blackest Tears - Kingdom of Sorrow

Hardened by life

Colder than time

What’s been seen still haunts

What’s heard still frightens

Last gasp of desperation

Truth be told to face expiration

Your will was shaken

Your ways betrayed them

Beyond what’s promised to all

You’ll never want to see

Behind the blackest tears

You’ll never want to know what’s

Behind the blackest tears

Behind the blackest tears

Nothing lives, nothing loves

Behind the blackest tears

All secrets are abandoned

Drifting through

It echoes into her

Eyes sting as she peers into the past

Tracing steps, through horrors revealed

Standing before the altar as the vic­tims kneel

You’ll never want to see

Behind the blackest tears

You never want to know what’s

Behind the blackest tears

Last gasp of desperation

Truth be told to face expiration

Your will was shaken

Your ways betrayed them

Beyond what’s promised to all

No one should ever see what’s

Behind the blackest tears
