lyrics

Under your dark cascading blanket,
I closed my eyes and such
A tender swift caress
From the evening summer hush

I savored your very lips
From the black of air you breathe
I lusted for the crisps
That I tasted from your teeth

Addicted to your charm,
I was in for a swirling hell
From the demons that caused harm
To the skins of my own shell

I lived for the beating lie,
The very poisons of my life
Oh, fuck. I'm gonna die,
And I'm in for a lot of strife

It had been centuries ever since
When love had paved its way
From the clock of greatest sins
It ripped me, failing you to stay

Do you remember back in the day in spring?
Through the music, we used to sing
Songs of love and joy and light
Music flown from silver flight

I always knew good things come to end
Like how the flowers close in snow
I knew wounds cannot be mend
When you watched the blood to flow

My heart bled while you stood to stare
And new seasons blew my silver hair
Yesterday’s gloom chains my soul
On my chest, betrayal drilled a hole

I thought tricks were only done by clowns
They never tend to lie
As I walked in empty halls
All I see are grayish skies

I cannot believe, as I carried you
In my lonely seeking arms
You were painting other hues
In our canvass, blue and black

Severed by fissures from the earth
I fixed the mess you made,
Learned love from a woman since my birth
That love was always something meant to stay

Love was meant to fill you to the brim
To help you grow and rise
