Lyrics
A Closer End
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
As in the life of rain
you're only alive when you're falling
the coldest chill
in the emptiness of reason
You brought it upon yourself
it's slow but final
with nothing to gain
you brought it upon yourself
it's slow but final
it begins today
Light up the days
with the darkest of waking dreams
for endless puzzles
to reflect our aim
You brought it upon yourself
it's slow but final
with nothing to gain
You brought it upon yourself
it's slow but final
it starts today
It seems you've passed the mark
of indescribable dark
I fear you've drowned
in hope of what you think will come
Extracted from the sharpest of moments
Built to greet you when the time will come
Empty spaces on foundations of denial
Your structure is dust
As in the death of dream
awakenings will leave you stranded
where no one is listening
where no one is around
