work in progress if anyone has any tips share them please. ---------- Tonight, I cried, wept for the world wept out of sadness Sadness for the world we seem to have lost sight lost sight of what's right this world gives me fright in this everlasting night Tonight, I sighed, a groan of contempt contempt I hold against against apathetic men my sigh, understood only by the wise the wise ones who've cried, cried, sighed and tried Tonight, I said goodbye goodbye to the night the night we tried to alight in this everlasting fright Looking at my last horizon wondering when they'll wizen then I close my eyes and I can feel the sun risin Last night I tried I tried not to cry I tried not to sigh and tried not to die but after I died The sun did rise to illuminate the lives of the ones who sighed cried tried fried theorized and then died my fiery eyes my sunrise |

You make the sunrise appear much more beautiful when you paint it this way. |
