Bruise on the Wrist

Thus thy heart in silence, break
Embrace the tears we now forsake





One drop for lonliness

One drop for shame

One drop for the children

Writhing in pain





Tear out my tongue in mortal splendor
Embrace my tears that must end here





One drop for the broken

One drop for the dead

One drop for the voices

That live in my head





Silent witness to this ghastly crime
Embrace my tears in Satan's brine





One drop for the haunted

One drop for the damned

One drop for the shadows

Wandering this land





Thus thy heart in silence, break
Embrace the tears we now forsake...
