Revisionist

Revision one...this could take some time. 

[Still Untitled]

The sky cries, and trees
bow their heads
in quiet prayer
The earth, she shakes, 

with anger and roars in pain,
But what do I care,
What do I care

My heart, broken, cries out
but no one hears
So let the sky cry
until her tears wash away
My pleas, mere whispers
to all, unheard
So let the trees bow
and break in despair
My body lies crumpled, broken 

and bare
Why shouldn't the earth tremble,
and share my same fate

For if the sun no longer shines,
overcome by night's fears

Would anyone notice,

Would anyone care
if the stars fall from the heavens
and not one witness their sins

For aren't all our hearts broken
Carried away by the wind
Scattered in pieces

Does anyone care
