Why do I linger in your silence?
I have let the light of living fade
With the rotting remains of hope and regret
And still I am alone in this wasteful life
Digging through the dust to find what I let wither with neglect
I am looking for what was once there
I swear I’ve seen it before, but I have forgotten how time works
I kept telling myself I have time
I have time
I have time
But now I am lost
Left behind with handfuls of ash;
In the streets of dеpleted soil
And gutters of running wastе from fleeting delicate moments of being
Rain has turned to wine
And I desperately drink as if it will nourish my veins
Helping me to forget, to pretend that this silence isn’t yours
But this intoxicating rain echoes
In the hollow remnants of what will never bloom again
I have let the light of living fade
With the rotting remains of hope and regret
And still I am alone in this wasteful life
Digging through the dust to find what I let wither with neglect
I am looking for what was once there
I swear I’ve seen it before, but I have forgotten how time works
I kept telling myself I have time
I have time
I have time
But now I am lost
Left behind with handfuls of ash;
In the streets of dеpleted soil
And gutters of running wastе from fleeting delicate moments of being
Rain has turned to wine
And I desperately drink as if it will nourish my veins
Helping me to forget, to pretend that this silence isn’t yours
But this intoxicating rain echoes
In the hollow remnants of what will never bloom again
