lyrics

you've had your fingers in the ashes again.
the winters come and leaves no longer cover your skin.

and, you breathed my melody,
dressed in melancholy -
like childhood memory -
just less happy
than what I remembered it to be.

you've had your fingers in the ashes again.
winters come and leaves no longer cover your skin.

i haven't forgotten,
but i will still pretend.

and, i'd lie to hear those stories again,
longing for the innocence i've lost,
an escape from your delirium,
to regain a feeling long forgot.

my only sin is what i demand to see.
so, i've let what i can't change define me.
when the sun breaks the horizon,
and you're still here with me,
i long for deeper colours,
before my eyes and before these dreams.

it's how the branches of the trees
carry the weight of these dying leaves.
and i carry this dead love,
to bury and grow
into hate and jealousy.

i don't feel anything, anymore.
fill my emptiness.
fill my heart
so i won't let this change.
