    day of heartbreak, rock me fast asleep
    when at last the tears are tired
    bleeding sunset, dip your weary head beneath
    my pillow and dry away the lies

    legend leads me to believe that power
    and strength only come from within
    but experience brings me to my knees before
    the only one i know who can make me smile again

    'day of heartbreak'! what a great line, it's like a twist of daybreak!

    'dry away the lies.' this line, added with the blood imagery, reminds me of a murdered sun perhaps?
