lyrics

Verse 1
________________________________________
Departure of a carer
Remainder - to be held by it's creator
A wide hole to be filled
In a void - efficient tarp to save this rosebud

Glue began to harden
A person to sit awkwardly in the void
Shattered glass - blazing love
In a void - shielding the biting of these snow flakes


Bridge 1
________________________________________
The umbilical cord saw it's stiches


Verse 2
________________________________________
It layed on so thick
I can only imagine how they felt
A picture that was sad
Devoured within a world of dead
Black spots on the eye
But unaware to the strength
I was happy with the two
Another ray comes through th night


But none of that could stay
It might work out that way
A vain that collapsed
Soil that was fed acid
There's this blotch that won't fade
It followed me everyday
This rain and shadow cast
Starting to break me


Chrous
________________________________________
And it died
And so did I
A whole opened wide
And I fell through


The descent
Went further down
Exploring my world
In the void


Verse 3
________________________________________
Eyes are wet - addiction
Written word - a note I tucked in the coffin
Seed that left - visiting
This dead man - kicking the crutch from beside me


Verse 4
________________________________________
Filled feelings of lonliness be
Another leg of the support beam
Slanting my smiling at my denial
Does it feel cold in here?


(bridge)

Verse 5
________________________________________
Black spots on the eye
But unaware to the strength
I was happy with the two
Another ray comes through the night
But none of that could stay
It might work out that way
A vain that collapsed
Soil that was fed acid

(Chorus)
