lyrics

I felt the shroud around me
Concealing all the things that used to be
Is it me
That drowns in desolation

And when you took the moment
To recall all the time in life we spent
Remembering
Before it fell apart

In your eyes
Burning flame
Deep inside
Cold, untame

Lost the will
Inside to fight
Carry me
Into eternal night

I'm not afraid, the thought of dying
I am afraid of this hole that's left in me
And in the end should I be trying?
I’m falling fast, and no room is left to breathe
But no one has the motive
To save a dying dream

There's something off about me
On land I feel I'm drowning endlessly
Into a sea
Of fading memories

No longer there to comfort
Awakened from my slumber every night
Afraid to fight
When will this all be over

In your eyes
Burning flame
Deep inside
Cold, untame

Lost the will
Inside to fight
Carry me
Into eternal night

I'm not afraid, the thought of dying
I am afraid of this hole that's left in me
And in the end should I be trying?
I’m falling fast, and no room is left to breathe
But no one has the motive
To save a dying dream.

And if I win this battle
Take a piece of my heart
Bury this with the rubble
To piece together the time we’re apart

How can this be in a barren open field
Where nothing’s left, not a place to be concealed
An implication of a second means to be
And with this rose, I feel a grayness rise out of me

I'm not afraid, the thought of dying
I am afraid of this hole that's left in me
And in the end should I be trying?
I’m falling fast, and no room is left to breathe
But no one has the motive
To save a dying dream
