The World Crumbles

Night skies crumble and the stars have gone to sleep  
nothingness roams these roads  
and the silence screams off key  

There is no moon to reflect the beauty  
there are no winds to soothe the pain  
light hasn't conquered darkness  
and peace has eluded again  
 
Time has stopped for whiskey  
one shot and she'll be on her way  
but the bottle is only half empty  
and her song is yet to play  
 
Imagine there's no heaven  
and we're a living puppet show  
strung up for pure amusement  
that's one hell of a way to go  
 
From here to there is sorrow  
we walk in each others shoes  
it's easy when only the words are talking  
tomorrow I'll come fight for you
