Pardon me, trembling You used to say "You’re like the sun, you’re like the sun" Your eyes said everything, no fucking love to be found The flowers on my grave spell an answer overdue What forces govern me to you Skin to skin we’re close but that blossoming refrains I can never feel your blood swimming through your veins Our bodies old friends but strangers at heart Why do we chase this from the start? Pardon me, trembling You used to say "You’re like the sun, you’re like the sun" Your eyes said everything, no fucking love to be found No fucking love to be found In fragility glass chests will crack In my sleep broken shards tearing my back Knowing how it ended that week I’ll be waiting, waiting by the creek Two bodies have withered the lover in me This is the last time you’ll take everything Pardon me, trembling You used to say "You’re like the sun, you’re like the sun" This is the last time you’ll take everything This is the last time

I stand 40 stories high, senseless from trying, how do I say goodbye? Haunted by a heavy heart, could this fall let the beating start? A wind creeps in, speaking your name. I scream my plea but a silence remains. I feel a cold touch in the Autumn leaves, calling me. You promised me, you promised the winds would change. Still the nights drag on, still they speak your name. Paralysed in sub conscious state, lapse of time I can’t fucking break. You promised, you promised, the winds would change. Still, the night drags, still it speaks your name. How do I wake from this life I’ve come to hate? I focus on my own revival, make my heart feel alive. To make my heart feel alive Over the edge I see, every man falls eventually. Could this fall let the beating start? Could this finally let us grow apart? I’m just another breath in the crowd, another drop in the cloud. So leave me to fall. Tears lost in the rain, lost in it all. I stand 40 stories high. Senseless from trying, how do I say goodbye? Haunted. So leave me to fall. Like rain in the wind. I’m just another breath in the crowd, another drop in the cloud. So leave me to fall. Tears in the rain, lost in it all

We move on the waters of awareness and emotion, No questions about the will or issues at hand. So cast the oars and map to the wind, and follow me through this journey across the surface of our unconscious. When we’re as one, we light up the nights we close the doors and we become ourselves, still knowing that there’s someone nearby. I feel so calm, I feel so at home, yet knowing that I’m faraway. I finally know whom I can trust and whom I should leave behind. Sometimes we find it hard to see eye to eye, and to glimpse the end of it all, in hindsight we always find ourselves at the top of everything. This is what I desire, this is what I need. And If we one day should separate; you will always know where to find me. ‘Cause no matter how strong these oars were built, They will never break as long as they still pair. And If we one day should separate; you will always know where to find me. You always know where to find me, always find me When we’re as one, we light up the nights

You’re a shadow of a wolf feeding upon the life of others, Hiding deep inside the darkness pretending to be something that you’re not. Take off your mask and reveal yourself, let me know what’s hidden within. Don’t forget who you are and where you’re from. If they tear you apart, then there’s no way back. Don’t let the demons within control your world. Only death can save you from this reality. You’re nothing but an imitation of your surroundings, Mirrored in the eyes of a thousand blind windows. You tend to forget about yourself, Can you see yourself in the reflection? You seek out the light to escape anxiety. The only place to rest is in the dark. So close your eyes and fade away. I’m sickened by your morality.
