there was an angels song
that played all through the day
and even all night long
there were butterflies and rainbows
and an enchanted lake of green
mermaids swimming happily
and the tallest trees you've ever seen.
staues made of gold
glittered throughout the land
while salamanders played restlessly
in silver colored sand.
the grass always glittered
a white colored frost
and none of its cheery warmth
they thought could be lost,
until the night the nightmares came
and took all they saw.
the land froze in cold dark ice
and never did it thaw.
and now my heart is darkened
and forever shall it be
until my body's buried
'neath the crying tree.
