lyrics

Can you still hear my whispers though the winter silent gray air
Your frames are collecting dust on the walls
chasing shadows in the dark
Guilty pressure, it pulled you under

You escape the bad dream that is called life
but i feel you in my skin
I can see those empty green eyes staring back at me
the devil's grip holds you tight
The heavy thoughts weigh you down
the questions make less sense every day
Your words were cut short
you crack your bones and shed your skin

Your time was cut short you welcome death at your door step
your only son was staring at your blank face
The glaze of empathy and lost of hope
you were sick of everybody's mistakes
The knots twist in your stomach
It hung your head hanging in the daylight
the broken shield, embrace your skin
( This sick obsession, this mad disease, a recollection of you and me )

I can feel the noose around my neck
i feel the tension, the frustration
we lay your body to rest
Another friend gone, another day has passed
the only rhyme to reason, the seasons change to fast
And we're in this together and you know what they say
about birds of a feather
not a single soul is the same
Bleed the seeds of every vice
repeating the voices, the face of a coward
Stitching the seams over time
again and again
I hate this passion, i need the feeling
The subtle differences, in false wounds healing.
