Concrete Sky from Concrete Sky by Bardic Mechanism
I wrote these lyrics while hiding at the bottom of a stairwell. The concrete was my sky as I lay down, so I wrote about it to pass the time. This song is for everyone and everything that our world rejects. It is also a warning to everyone who thinks that they could never be broken.

Lyrics
Below the streets
A concrete sky
Where hollowed dreams
Lie down to die
Those from above
Don't want to know
The broken things
That lie below
A hairless doll
A worn out tool
A broken toy
A raving fool
A radio
That makes no sound
A mangy mutt
That barked too loud
Newspapers from
Too long ago
A tree that had
No light to grow
A plastic soldier
That can't stand
Watching glass
Turn into sand
A ballroom dress
That's filled with holes
And all the lost
Discarded souls
Below the streets
They come to lie
To waste beneath
A concrete sky
The concrete sky
Those from above
Will one day be
The broken things
They fail to see
Discarded, thrown
Down to the ground
Where light and purpose
Can't be found
Forgotten
Safely out of sight
When they lost
The will to fight
When they no longer
Bring delight
When there is
No hope inside
