Here Lies Everything That Once Was

Here Lies Everything That Once Was

Along the winding path you will see an empty clearing 

This is the place where everything became so weary 

This is the place that I have dreamt about these past few nights. 

Falling apart like the splitting hairs of a leukaemia angel 

That tumbles to the ground in a soft bliss. 

We have been talking about leaving this place for years. 

These teardrops never had meaning until now 

And every one of them has a surrogate feeling 

Broken into a million pieces like a shattered mirror. 

The shade from the trees will keep you in the dark

Safe from the visualization of my dissolving wings

And from the sounds of my withering melody. 

Never before has such a wicked story come true

Swept clean from any shades of a silver lining 

But still stained from the perseverance of time. 

Along the winding path you will come across an empty clearing

When you get there you will know what to do.

"Never before has such a wicked story come true
