lyrics

Drifting through space with your hands on your face, far from home.
After some time, you pretend not to mind life alone.
But every scar leaves its own precious mark on the bone.

Hallucinations of distant relations gone by.
You froze their affection with silent rejection through time.
You smoke the regret in a sad cigarette with a sigh.

CHORUS:
Fading away, can't get through.
I have become a memory.
Words I might say, trapped inside.
Wasting away, 'til the body dies.

When you were young, a mute trial had begun in your soul.
And through all these years, all the unspoken fears took their toll.
Betrayed from within as a claw drags you into the hole.

CHORUS

In breakable stillness, your snowsoft back turns forever.
You fade into the lacelight with intent in your stride never to return
to this broken shell.
You don't look back,
and the silence of it all is noise enough.
I hold nothing but the hope that your heart
finds blood to forgive me.
