Lyrics

Gone Silent Bowing to the cold Fraught Stranded Reaching for the bottom A scarred Wanderer Vowing to return To beckon the sun Until your heart is cold like ice Embrace the memory Of warmer days by the riverside Still vivid in your head A defiant urge to cross that line Dividing timeless streams There is life running through your eyes Despite the fear for tomorrow Come what may Eternally These scars will leave a trail of desolation For those unhealed On the wire Where you found me Right before the fall Tears of joy would find their way to an ocean of despair And come the end of all I've ever dreamed It conjures up the rain denied Though better days are past this elegy It couldn't overwrite my pride Before the leaves had fallen down (from these sacred trees) I lost you to darkened skies (without one last goodbye) When we broke our promise (never to return) Shame found you with folded arms (Death's pale embrace) Until your heart has bled like mine Refrain from empathy Until winter has draped in white This haunting effigy... ...still There is life running through your eyes Despite the fear for tomorrow Come what may Eternally These scars will leave a trail of desolation For those unhealed Follow and See the stars collide By the light of the burst We ascend Wallow And feel the sun closer Letting go of the world To separate flesh from bone Bone from heart Heart from soul Soul from mind And live on...
