Verse 1
the smell of incense
it fills the air inside this room
cast of light colorly strewn about the floor
a casket lined with pills
and the bitter taste of absinth
to wash it down and so it ends like it began
Chorus 1
at a cross along this interstate
a worn inscription all cracked and faded
these actions will remain when bodies turn to dust
and from this monument
E F#m--D-E(x2)
i will drown inside the anguish of your heart
Verse 2
a new dawn broke this morning
tears were raining in this room
as pure as holy water
reflecting images of you
this world is like a whore
so ravish and so beautiful
so bitter cold and all alone
Chorus 2
and if i had my way we'd wake up on the day we met
i'd stare into your heart for hours
and try to make you hear the sweetest thoughts
but not tonight we die inside each others arms
we'd revel in our last embrace
and kiss you as we die
Bridge
i rest my lifeless head upon your heart forever (x3)
Interlude
maybe i'll bring you sunlight after all i'm sorry
maybe i'll bring you sunlight after all i'm sorry (x4)
Interlude
maybe i'll greet sunlight after all I'm sorry
maybe i'll greet sunlight after all
