The City of Tears Lyrics by Hartlight

The Triumph of Metal

2025

Bluish droplets collide
\nThey faint and intertwine
\nOn the iron stained glass
\nWaving in the half-light
\n
\nDelicate spinal columns
\nWitness to fleeting beauty
\nSkeletons tending to heaven
\nBears the cathedral city
\n
\nThe storm's retreating roar
\nClashes with the thunder's roll
\n
\nCastle built on a black cliff
\nHidden by the evergreens
\nThe slow rustle of the wind
\nCradles the city of tears
\n
\nSoothing the lonely shadows
\nPounding the murky arches
\nThe symphony of еchoes
\nIs sheltering thе city of tears
\n
\nRoaming in my pale mantle
\nI am the ghost and the guest
\nUnder the bridge and my feet
\nPass my fondest memories
\n
\nI dried my alabaster
\nEyes to fix in history
\nThe heroes of the hours
\nThat shaped my destiny
\n
\nRaindrops cascade down the hill
\nA grey river shedding its fill
\n
\nNo more grist for the mill
\nNo more salt for my grief
\nI face the icy fears
\nAs they fade in the breeze
\n
\nI lie down on the warm sheet
\nI close my heavy eyelids
\nAnd I dream without barriers
\nA crease appears on my cheeks\n\n
