(Soft
acoustic
guitar
pluck)
Chale,
the
road
is
long.
Heavy
heart,
heavy
soul.
I
search
for
peace
in
a
world
of
dust.
I
offered
loyalty
like
a
cup
of
gold
But
they
poured
it
on
the
ground,
so
cold
My
friend,
my
brother,
turned
to
a
ghost
of
lies
Why
do
I
stand
here
with
these
weeping
eyes?
What
is
the
value
of
a
heart
so
true?
When
betrayal
is
the
only
song
you
knew.
If
death
were
sweet,
it
would
be
my
wish
To
leave
this
world
and
its
bitter
dish
To
trade
this
pain
for
a
silent
sleep
Where
the
promises
made
are
finally
deep
Oh,
if
death
were
sweet,
I
would
be
gone
Beyond
the
shadows
of
this
breaking
dawn.
I
gave
my
skin,
I
gave
my
pulse
to
you
My
partner,
my
love,
the
one
I
thought
I
knew
But
you
rubbished
my
name,
you
questioned
my
light
You
turned
my
morning
into
endless
night
And
for
the
children,
I
planted
every
seed
They
buried
my
love
like
a
common
weed.
If
death
were
sweet,
it
would
be
my
wish
To
leave
this
world
and
its
bitter
dish
To
trade
this
pain
for
a
silent
sleep
Where
the
promises
made
are
finally
deep
Oh,
if
death
were
sweet,
I
would
be
gone
Beyond
the
shadows
of
this
breaking
dawn.
I
served
a
nation
that
knows
not
my
name
I
lived
among
people
who
feed
on
the
flame
They
disregard
the
space
where
I
stand
Just
a
stranger
in
my
own
father’
s
land.
So
what
is
the
point
of
the
sweat
on
my
brow?
When
silence
is
all
that
they
offer
me
now
I’
m
tired
of
proving
the
worth
of
my
soul
In
a
broken
vessel
that
won’
t
be
whole.
If
death
were
sweet,
it
would
be
my
wish
To
leave
this
world
and
its
bitter
dish
To
trade
this
pain
for
a
silent
sleep
Where
the
promises
made
are
finally
deep
Oh,
if
death
were
sweet,
I
would
be
gone
Beyond
the
shadows
of
this
breaking
dawn.
Let
me
go,
let
me
sleep.
No
more
betrayal,
no
more
to
weep.
Just
the
silence…
just
the
rest.
If
only
death
were
sweet…
