He watches as the snowflake falls with grace
And wonders when time lost it's pace
The lonely moon glares down on the face
The face of a boy who has lost the race
The train whistle blows as the trees dance in the wind
Railway tracks, soon to hold a grave weight
Tears fall gently, unheard by ears of those who sinned
