lyrics

I am not fit for this realm
Begging for the dark
To pull me silently down
Under the solace of the setting sun
My life turns to gray
Twelve days of anguish
Now I’ve become one with the
Truth of my fate
Longing for freedom
From this prison of flesh
Bound to this husk
And now unshackled through death

I saw your shadow
I thought you’d come along
I’ll leave behind this blade
And all the years of pain
Do you feel my shadow
Will you follow me home
Leave your life behind
Turn these memories to stone

Be sure you read these lines
It’s not forever
Stop waiting for me

You’ll find me within your heart
And the memories you keep close
And should you find yourself searching deeper
Follow the motion of the leaves to me
Down
Down
Past the crooked chapel where we
Once said that we’d be happy together forever
I could’ve sworn I heard you call my name
Or saw your face in the glint of the blade
Down
Down
Look for every reason to stay
Still chasing the forever and every after

Find me in the memories
Will you see me in the mirror
Will you join me in the cold
Did you find yourself waiting forever
Am I the last you’ll ever hold
Am I the last you’ll ever hold

Let nothing delay us now
You’ll find me within your heart
And the memories you keep close

And should you find yourself searching deeper
Follow the motion of the leaves to me
Down
Down
Past the crooked chapel where we
Once said that we’d be happy together forever
Happy together forever
Happy together forever
