lyrics

My mind is cold, but your body’s a part of me;
Skin as smooth as the rain, but sharper than words in pain.
These violent sounds are the sounds of your fall;
So sad are the roses you’ve left; as angry as the colors you’ve kept.

You watched it burn
As I waited for the flames to stop.

You shout the words that I cannot hear,
From the deafening sounds of raindrops coming in over my head.
I hold this umbrella high as a reminder of what I’ve left behind;
The currents drag me away as tears form in our eyes.

But we promised, and I lied;
We promised, and you lied.
I am judgment; I am key;
I am lover’s face in the sea.

See, shadows? They lie inside me;
Simplify the rain.

You watched it burn
As I waited for the flames to stop.

Are we sleeping in the water?
Like the strangers we’ve become, we don’t ask anymore.
Are we drifting in the water?
Like the strangers we’ve become, we don’t ask anyone.
Don’t breathe, don’t sleep, there is no time for that,
As I’m torn apart by the knives in your back;
I smile at the welcoming sight of my heart on the floor;
And to think that you’re not sleeping all alone;
And to think that you’re now sleeping all alone.
