Elegy - Carina Round

Elegy Lyrics

Something ripped me open
From my little death woken
The fading rhythm of a lifeline
Is music for a dead childI'm skirting the rim
Skirting the rim of reality
Skirting the rim
Love, don't pull me inSomehow everything is broken
Hours past and never replayed
I sing the sickness of a love that
Though it lives, can never be madeThere are cracks where
The white light burns through
Seems I see everything but the truth
Once more to that sacred place
The dream that sucks me underI'm skirting the rim
Skirting the rim of reality
Skirting the rim
Love, don't pull me inSomehow everything is broken
Hours past and never replayed

I sing the sickness of a love that
Though it lives, can never be madeSomehow everything is clearer now
Hours pass with never a relief
I sing the sadness of a moment
Though it lived was never seen, seen, seen
