Delta's Lament

(Verse 1) In the shadowed halls of memory, where sorrow's whispers sigh, Delta walks with heavy steps, beneath a darkened sky. She tried to save her dearest friend, from Huta's cruel decree, But fate's unyielding hand struck down, and now she grieves in agony. (Pre-Chorus) She begged him not to venture there, to stay away from doom, But Eamon's heart was steadfast, and he walked into his tomb. She held the gun with trembling hands, tried to end his pain, But fear betrayed her aim, and now his blood still stains. (Chorus) Delta, Delta, haunted by the choices made, With the guilt that clings like shadows, in the light that starts to fade. She tried to be his savior, but became his agony, And now the pain and sadness are all that she can see. (Verse 2) He saved her life a thousand times, his spirit strong and bright, Despite the parasite within, he fought with all his might. But the church proclaimed him sinner, and they sealed his fate, She couldn't change their minds, and now it's far too late. (Pre-Chorus) She aimed to end his suffering, to grant him mercy's grace, But missed the mark and saw the pain etched deep upon his face. She couldn't bear to watch him die, to see the light go out, And now the guilt and sorrow fill her heart with endless doubt. (Chorus) Delta, Delta, haunted by the choices made, With the guilt that clings like shadows, in the light that starts to fade. She tried to be his savior, but became his agony, And now the pain and sadness are all that she can see. (Bridge) Every night she hears his voice, a whisper in the dark, A reminder of the friendship lost, a never-healing mark. She dreams of different endings, where she saved him from his plight, But wakes to cold reality, and the tears she cries each night. (Chorus) Delta, Delta, haunted by the choices made, With the guilt that clings like shadows, in the light that starts to fade. She tried to be his savior, but became his agony, And now the pain and sadness are all that she can see. (Outro) In the silence of the morning, where the light begins to grow, Delta carries with her the weight of all she'll never know. She didn't want to lose him, didn't want to see him hurt, But the guilt and pain consume her, as she walks upon this earth.
