Ravished from our paradise
A crack in the mirror I know who's to blame
So full of life but paralyzed
Etch on my iris, but I try not to think of it all
We swore to god in veritas
and burned our skin like it burned our souls
One dealt with grief by causing pain
she hid behind maple and built her own fortress of sound
Hear this melody almost forgotten
(HUSH)
I've been waiting a lifetime to show you
You're returning to heaven like dust to dust
I've been waiting forever to witness your fading
Like ashes to ashes
Forbidden dance on fragile skin
Why do you shine as I suffer in pain
The greatest scars remain within
Leaving you now with a heart as black as cardinal sin
Fear this melody almost forgotten
I've been waiting a lifetime to show you
You're returning to heaven like dust to dust
I've been waiting forever to witness your fading
Like ashes to ashes
(Solo)
I've been waiting a lifetime to show you
Been waiting too long
I've been waiting a lifetime to show you
You're returning to heaven like dust to dust
Been waiting forever to witness your fading
Like ashes to ashes
