lyrics

I saw all the things you’d sworn
Would make disappear but didn’t.
And now as your hand waves,
Outside a car window,
You show me this moment as forever.

And the moment is lost…
We’re rebuilding this inert thing,
You’ve turned into a statue.
A statue to mark all I’ve got,
Carved out from painful memories.
The scars will remain scarlet permanently.

But I won’t run if you try to show me this is forever
Show me this as forever.
I won’t run, If you try.

Try to be more than I could not.
Just a shadow, when you needed me most.
Caught up in the city shade Gainsboro,
Turmoil deep etched into stone.
I won’t run if you try to show me forever,
I won’t run if you try to show me…

Show me this is forever,
If not show me where you keep the gun.
I’ll put more weight on the trigger,
Than you can carry with your burdens.

I won’t run, if you try.

When mortality stands as a scarlet reminder,
Your friends take their lives.

Praying for a reverie.

Bleak and hopeless... and I absolutely love it. Hard to pick a favourite track, honestly; all of them are masterpieces in their own right. brentos27
