SkyBolt - The Sound of Silence

First I thought it was the end...
That it was my time to ascend,
But from the darkness I awoke once more
Hearing still the loud and deafening roar
Of that fire... consume my fragile bones...
That still glows
Among the sound of silence.

I walked the ashes I called home
A specter cursed to ever roam
'Neath the cover of a clouded sky
Still uncertain why I'm left behind
When my ears arose to their long and haunting cries
That split the night
And broke the sound of silence

And in the broken streets I saw
That I was not the only one,
But they couldn't answer my pleading
Only offering their moans and screams
Ponies cursed to live like demons forced to rise
With empty eyes
Disturb the sound of silence

"Why?" I cried to up above
That everything I ever loved
Has been dressed up in the robes of death
Masquerading like there's something left
When I look inside and find a hollow grave
That I pray for the sound of silence

Once we lived our lives and played
Beneath the sun and all its rays
But it's fire has been snuffed away
Leaving cinders like that final day.
Still feel alone as I am left in the choir of their
Ghastly haunting wails
Which avail
As death waits for the sounds of silence
