The Music Stopped - Tweedle Dum

She fell limp in my arms

Her eyes closed shut

A sigh escaped her lips

And then the music stopped

I clutched her lifeless form

The girl whom i had loved

I could never love again

For now the music had stopped

Her sweet weight in my arms

A tear escaped my eye

I moaned but it was not enough

Because the music had stopped

I thought of all the times we had shared

I remembered her lips on mine

I thought: but thinking brought me pain

To realize the music had stopped

In the darkness all around me

She had been my one true light

But now the darkness would come again

For now the music had stopped

I ran my fingers over her face

I would feel those shapes no more

Her soft skin was hard; it was cold

Since after the music had stopped

I sank to my knees on the hard cruel ground

The tears began streaming down my face

How could she go? How could she leave me alone?

How could the music have stopped?

She had been an angel and I had loved her

But her God had called her back

She had been my life so why didn't I die?

Now that the music had stopped?

Light now dawned; the sun came up

But there was no light for me

She was gone and all light had gone with her

Gone! And the music had stopped

There were six billion people but they took her

Why couldn't they take my life?

Did they think I could live with her gone?

Live when the music had stopped?

I couldn't live, for my life had gone

She was all I had to live for

I would join her-my love, wherever she had gone

Gone when the music had stopped

She was still in my arms, a bullet in her head

Her killers had left a gun

I had no choice , there was no other way

Because the music had stopped

I left her on the ground and picked up the gun

There was just one bullet left

I didn't need any more; one was enough

One had made sure the music had stopped

The gun in my hand I stared at her form

At the form of the girl I had loved

I would join her soon, wherever she had gone

After the music had stopped

The gun at my head I closed my eyes

I paused and thought about my love

I remembered her kiss, the life in her eyes

Which had gone when the music had stopped

I pulled the trigger and the gun roared

I fell beside her on the ground

I stared at her face and clutched her hand

And then the music stopped.
