Smile

as snowflakes dance under the light of the moon
and melt on the still warm corpses
I listen to the wind humming a familiar tune
far away on a secluded isle
I wanna watch you wear nothing but your smile

a ghastly ghoul walks amongst the scorching ruins of faith
drawn by those alluring magical forces
of your brand newly born wraith
far away on a secluded isle
I wanna watch you wear nothing but your smile

vultures soar above the scorching ruins of hope
scratch every now and again those pretty faces  
held tightly by the greasy strings of some old rope
far away on a secluded isle
I wanna watch you wear nothing but your smile

tears' blades soaked in blood
dripping heavily into the mud
I catch glimpse of myself in your empty eye
where I wanna watch you wear nothing but your smile

and it won't be long before this view is bereft of
the desperate crowd searching for pulses
amongst the scorching ruins of love
but I'm far away on a secluded isle
where I wanna watch you wear nothing but your smile

and I stare at the image of your distant memory
a fading reverie
till there's nothing left to die
besides your smile
