• when the willow starts a' weapin'

    you know tha time is here

    when people are all sleepin

    the willow sheds a tear



    through the air like a diamond

    tail like liquid flame

    its only seen for seconds

    before meeting the earth like rain



    the willow knows its her last moment

    her life on earth is ending

    she weeps for lost tomorrows

    times gone theres no mending...



    the girl held the necklace in her fist

    jewel pendant against her palm

    she presses her hand against her lips

    acknowledging all thats gone



    in her other hand she weilds a gun

    tears fall from her damp eyes

    she touches the barrel to her head

    then whispers last goodbyes



    muscles twitch within her finger

    she summons courage and pulls the trigger

    the gold chain falls from her hand

    slipping through her fingers like dry sand



    through the air like a diamond

    tail like liquid flame

    it is only seen for seconds

    before meeting the earth like rain



    the girl knew it was her last moment

    her life on earth had ended

    she had wept for lost tomorrows

    death could not be mended....



    humans gaze towards the heavens

    denying what they saw

    animals nodded in acceptance

    staring in awe



    heads bowed in prayer to God

    asking"Why this night"

    the sight above was very odd

    for they thought they beleived the god who's right



    creatind darkness apon the mother

    was an astroid creaping nearer

    it was larger than any other

    shielding the brilliant light



    mothers hold wailing children

    some cry clutching a lover

    other's hoped staying hidden

    too late it'll soon be over



    through the air like a diamond

    tail like liquid flame

    it's only seen for seconds before

    meeting the earth like rain



    people knew it was their last moment

    their life on earth had ended

    they wept for lost tomorows

    Death could not be mended



    the willow,she knows

    whenever death is near

    when a the flock of white crows

    gather on her branches here



    when the willow starts a weapin'

    she knows the time is here

    when people are all sleepin

    she sheds a single tear...
