Song Choice: Shattered, by Trading Yesterday.
Carnivores Don't Cry.
Life is cold
With seams of pretence
And as we grow old
We lose our sense
We hang our heads
And complicate
But still hide in beds
And try to compensate
We still love our friends
But no longer show
But for when we defend
Against callous foes
Soon we forget about
Our hearts of lead
Until we hear the shouts
But it's too late; they're dead
And flowers are naught but lies
And tears suggest too much
Carnivores don't cry
Against such cold a touch
The screeching of the birds
In a sky no longer blue
As he says his last words
"I'm so sorry. I love you."
We grace each other rosebuds
And lace together falsehoods
So thus with such sweet herbivores
Paint winsome tales of blood and gore
Dulled, we hate each truth
Nulled, we hold to lies
Empty pain long since to sooth
His smile to meet with closing eyes
Nonchalant in numbness trained
A funeral for a man of grins
Holding dimly tonfas stained
As others speak of shot-gun sins
They dig the hole, and make it deep
We race forward through the sheep
"Oi, stop it! He's just asleep."
And those surrounding fall and weep.
(Hibari Kyoya didn't believe in death, until in palm to chest he found no breath.)
