For the fallen

Sirens scream on empty streets
rush to the urgency of those in need
need some time to think it all over
feel so drunk with thoughts grim and sober
people watch and people stare
no-one moves and know one cares
anymore
In the dark a scream so faint
carries long on troubled minds
oh sweet black empty hope
stay close and true for the fallen
This thought goes out for the fallen
come drink with me for the fallen
we’ll find a sense of belonging
we know that we are the fallen
Though time will
change,
a bit of me will
stay
bitter in my heart
we are the fallen
