Aftermath

Buried deep in the ashes from which no one will rise
No light, no tunnel, just darkness inside
No need to be rescued, it is all said and done
No need to be mourned, as we all come undone
I only whisper your name and it burns my tongue
And no one will rise
Just darkness insight
It is all said and done
As we all come undone

Hollow Heart
03:40

When I was searching for someone to replace the void in my heart
I should have been running away from this one chance to actually fill it
There were these nights when we never were lonely
When we thought we would never grow old
When we lived in that tiny appartement
This is the story to be told
Now I know that I am better off lonely
Being with you was what made me grow old
And I still live in that fucked up appartement
This is no story to be told
You said it was the things that made you bold
Are you feeling it? Are you feeling it?
But I am afraid that they just left you cold
You were killing it, you were killing it.
No reason to go through all of this on my own
What was our secret into blackmail it turned
What was our dream a nightmare it became
With a gun I could kill it
What is left of me inside of you
With a knife I could cut it out
What is left of you inside of me
I remember that house at the end of the road
Where we used to play when we were kids
We never kept our feelings inside
Heads in the clouds and hearts in our pockets
Oh I wish this never stopped
And I can still see you through the cracks in my self righteousness
Like a diamond in the rough you shone brighter than all the rest
I wish I could have done anything, undo everything that happened after that
Dont trust me in your sleep. Its over
It doesn’t matter how much time has passed. its over
You had the knives and I had the gun. its over

The Cave
03:25

This is not what I was being told
There are things that are meant to be forever
This is not what I was being told
This is just what they wanted me to see
And I am not here to ever let it go
I am here to help it grow
And I am not here to ever let you go
I am here to help it grow
All I want is in my arms
You are all that I need
Your name means love
And your hands don’t just touch
They shelter me
They form the cave
No days are cold, no hopes are lost in your life-long kiss
No messages hurt, no scars remain in your life-long kiss
You words so golden and true
You heart so deep and so pure
Yes cause this is forever
You owe me nothing and I owe you my life
You put hills in my landscape
You paint holes in my perfect grey sky
You owe me nothing and I owe you my life
You put trees in my landscape
You paint holes in my pefect grey sky
You laid this path, you opened the door

The Unknown Consequence
02:40
|

I told you a few stories of people unknown
You ask for their names, I call them mother, I call them father, brother and son
These are the songs about daring and about failing and about trying and success
But that was before I left and I never came back again
"I put an end to this story, now go up to your room" says a father in rage
"I hate you, I will never love you again" replies the daughter in haste
Later that night when she sneaked out of the house it was the last time I was that kid
And I still remember that night. I recall it like it was yesterday
I can still feel the walls coming close, just one way out
Out of that window, through that chokepoint, away from this life
Not accepted in this place
What if I leave, leave all behind
What if I go would they recognize
What if I am gone... what if... goodbye
And now let me finish the story of this broken home
No doors in their angles, caved in walls
Silent whispers cover the ground
Who is that ghost in the shadows? Is it the memory of an unseen kiss?
After all these years it is all still there
Burning in her heart like that fire that left nothing but death
I still believe
You better go with me, because we are dying alone
You know you’re better with me
Like she was stuck in a busted tunnel
Like she was lost in the open sea
You lost it all, she lost it all
You got the best out of me, you got the best out of me
And I am still stuck in a busted tunnel
never reached shores i am still lost in the open sea
I lost it all, I lost it all
You get the best out of me, you get the best out of me

Feathers Define Me
02:43
|

I went into the forest once
I didn't know the trees or the birds
They sang me songs, whispers hushed through the leaves
They gave me warmth which the concrete of my life could never do
They had no names, no lies they could tell
Silence, so peaceful here
Is where we don’t belong
Please accept me here, just for a while
I swam in the ocean once
I didn't know where I was or how deep I could go
I heard the songs, whispers hushed through the waves
They cooled me down where the concrete of my life had burned my skin
They had no names, no lies they could tell
Silence, so peaceful here
Is where we don’t belong
Please accept me here, just for a while
When all is beautiful who do you choose to love?
You don’t, because love is not a choice, it is the consequence
Of happiness and inner peace
That is where you put me down
I was a human once before you laid me in the ground
You dug a hole deep in the earth
I am a memory know. Only few remember me
I am a garment now of feathers and the wind carries me away

Love Undying
04:50
|

Now that I have lost you can I learn to live again?
Pump the blood back through my veins
Can I recreate, can I appreciate?
If I could find a fire in my chest, could the embers ignite my heart?
And reawaken the undying light
Will I ever rise again?
Now I am sitting here in the aftermath of your life
Still hear the doctors say ‘it is going to be alright’
Sounds in the distance, somebody is calling my name
But I will never leave you, no, no smile will ever be the same
Fight fire with fire until everything burns to the ground
Fight death with all the love you have
The memories of you and me will never fade away
Fight death with all the love you have
Oh I never hoped to win and I never dared to hope
I just wanted to be with you a little longer
And I still carried hope within, never let go of your hand
Accompany you on your way there
Time will tell, time will kill, time and time again
Fight fire with fire until everything burns to the ground
Fight death with all the love you have
The memories of you and me will never fade away
Fight death with all the love you have
There was this thing between us, we never talked it out
What if this battle was over and it was us on the ground
A final heartbeat and it was close to come
One last faint ‘I love you’ and then two hearts go numb
I only whisper your name and it still burns my tongue
