this spark has turned to flame
and my heart went ablaze
and in the moment the smoke is all what's left
of this arson
when you're young there's nothing more
than to be brave and to explore
now you aspire to adult goals
but nothing
nothing has ever changed and all of this is
just illusion
every time i pass these homes i look into the windows striving to see
your reflection in the mirror 'cause sometimes it means a world to me
and if i could i'd pass through all of this once again
'cause the moments of solace they mean much more than misery
than misery
those times
your eyes
mean so much more
than misery
your touch
your face in this crowd
when time makes its call leaving old friends behind
faces fade away and i don't know are we selfish or just blind
these relations are so fragile that it hurts to know
people that you used to love are gone and washed away by this flow
by this flow
all of the moments that you gave me
brought me to life
all of the times you looked my way
all of this
led to demise
your precious self you gave me
and i will always remember
that fire in your eyes
all of the times i've been alone
feeling empty in a broken home
i've been drowning my grief in this bottle
there's a reason why i drink
take your grief and let it sink
this words they mean nothing
without your actions
my past it haunts me
but i'll never be more afraid (of anything)
than of this monument
of broken dreams called "today"
this city sleeps
but i'm awake
still searching for the answers
those words and what they meant
we all hide in our castles
afraid to have a contact
locking in ourselves
or building this pretty picture
--
this city sleeps
but i'm awake
still searching for the answers
those words and what they meant
so this is how it always ends
the taste of wine and last embrace
on and on and on again
always keep your promises
