[bodytext] => Facts often lie and leave the truth behind Such was the case of a man killed by hate Set in front of the world who told him he had no soul He said Tears fall from my eyes And I long to die Free me of this pain That never goes away What am I to do I have everything to lose His wife and kids sat still in tears They knew he did no harm he was gentle and calm A great man in their eyes confused why he was despised And he said Tears fall from my eyes Why am I despised I did nobody wrong In this court I don't belong My kids see my pain They see the other sides hate The prosecution screamed that he was a killing machine He had no feelings at all so he had to take the fall Of another mans misdeed for the facts were all they could see And he thought Tears fall from my eyes I committed no crime My speeches are all that they see Why won't they believe I thought times had changed They spun the opposite way The judge bellowed out loud and silence over came the crowd With the stillness in the air he was called to the witness chair To give him his only chance to prove his innocence He sang Tears fall from my eyes I have nothing to hide Look at what you have done A man will die who did no wrong Yet you will sit and applaud At the innocents quiet fall The courtroom became still you would hear if pin fell Then the court gave the ruling and justice was kicked out screaming I will die quietly for no once hears the innocents plea And I sing Tears fall from my eyes I long to die Free me of this pain That never goes away All I ever did Was teach you how to live Watch me die Watch me die Close your eyes As I pass away from you Close your eyes Don't look at what you did do Close your eyes I will be gone tonight Close your eyes Another loses life [comments] => 2 [counter] => 176 [topic] => 34 [informant] => poet_of_anger [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
