Constellation of Tears - Cain's Offering

I will write a tale that is only mine

On the page the words entwine

My creation of beauty and of passion

Mortal heart now writing immortal love

Everything I’m dreaming of

I will fashion a goddess, my obsession

Stains on these pages

Constellation of tears

Like stars with scars

Dark design of my twisted mind

You’re the final blight of a failed playwright

Figment of my madness, verse of woe and sadness

Wild and free, you’re the raging sea

And one day you will be the end of me

Your star will be brightest in my constellation of tears

You’ll shine so bright tonight

Broke my quill, I can’t bend her to my will

And the love grows stronger still

While the rhymes they betray and the words they fail me

Erato, why do you hate me so?

Have some heart or let me go

I am old and I’m tired, uninspired

Stains on these pages

Constellation of tears

Like stars with scars

Dark design of my twisted mind

You’re the final blight of a failed playwright

Figment of my madness, verse of woe and sadness

Wild and free, you’re the raging sea

And one day you will be the end of me

Your star will be brightest in my constellation of tears

You’ll shine so bright tonight

A flame that burns twice as bright

Burns half as long

Mine faded long ago

My queen will never claim her throne

I’ll always be alone

My tale be left untold

Stains on these pages

Constellation of tears

Like stars with scars

Dark design of my twisted mind

You’re the final blight of a failed playwright

Figment of my madness, verse of woe and sadness

Wild and free, you’re the raging sea

And one day you will be the end of me

Your star will be brightest in my constellation

Dark design of my twisted mind

You’re the final blight of a failed playwright

Figment of my madness, verse of woe and sadness

Wild and free, you’re the raging sea

And one day you will be the end of me

Your star will be brightest in my constellation of tears

You’ll shine so bright tonight
