lyrics

Stay Together said the mountaintops before the lovers fall
And crumble universes who reasons being are more than monument
Crawl again said a trusting friend who trusts one side of problems as
If it all was nothing more than bias, nothing more short of some virus
Let the knife cut through her heart, said the ones that got a hold of it
Let memories decay, Let motions fade, let her passions leave
What it used to be
What she could have seen

Her hair tangles as she falls lets the wind just tear her skin
She can see those organs rise as she drops a skeleton
These veins snap so fragile-y they act if as their weathered twigs
I watch every feather drops, gravity’s broken both of her wings
So until the pressure pushes my eyes
Blindly left with the pains of feeling
Wondering if she could hear at all
To see who’s to blame for all this screaming
We’ve seen the end of these fights; we’ve seen the end of this ride
But I’ve seen the end of this night; I’ve seen the end of this life

Oceans erode time, weather evokes faith
The fire it burns lives more than a rope takes
Why do you, you, you, you focus on the flyaway
The earth corrodes everything that we make
Is that to say we weren’t worth the keepsake?
Why do you, you, you try to stay when you can’t truly

Come together said hate on the fence who
loves nothing more than violence
Why did it come to the point our veins break
like ashes from some summer’s warning

If loves abstract what pains have been
made so tailored by architect
Pain and pleasure come in knowledge
spoiled once in value by the sight of it
