Let me apologize in advance for

Having to sacrifice you

In the temple of words

At the crack of the dawn

When the sky will turn so red

You will lie there on the bed, unaware

And you’ll never learn what was true

As nobody ever does

We came searching around for any subtle signs of a chance to break through

And we only sensed the walls

From effect to the cause

No one ever signed for trading their precious time for virtueless interpretation

How could we wish for more

You won’t recall a thing

Just the stitches on your chest will make you wonder

I’d slide in past your ribs

Why, why weren’t we given other ways around?

It takes just one your glance

(To take down my defence)

To turn the tables back on me

(Annihilate what we could be)

To take us back down to the ground

I was slowly disarmed

Cornered and pinned to the ground by the sound of air-raid sirens

Shockwaves of the silence

It’s the ultimate harm

Leaving no traces behind just a taste of lifelong vain

the itchy phantom pain

I won’t apologize

But I can’t help but entice you

Into thinking that we’re safe

In the imminence of doom

When the sky will turn so black

You will lie there on the table in a sack

And you’ll never learn what was true
