Black Is Magnified

(album: Beautiful Distortion - 2022)

I see your empty gaze
The colour of your face
I've never seen before
You're fighting your last war
You'll leave us here a while
And turn to life and smile

The black holes in your eyes
They fade away and die
Feels like you dim the light
And drift into the night
Oh how I wish I dreamed
And could let off this steam

You will provide
That blood runs through my veins
I'm by your side
Until the clouds take over
Holding on to your hands
As I feel they get colder

We're lost in time
I watch your fading smile
I'm by your side
Until the clouds take over
Holding on to your hands
As I feel they get colder

I'll stay alive
Here by your side
I'll stay alive

The emptiness I fear
Consuming, everywhere
I stare into the sky
Where black is magnified
Infused with all you gave me
Your halo's here with me

My hope has been denied
Your freedom has arrived
Our dreams evaporate
Need to consolidate
If I had one more wish
You'd turn to life and smile

You will provide
That blood runs through my veins
I'm by your side
Until the clouds take over
Holding on to your hands
As I feel they get colder

I'll stay alive
Here by your side

We're lost in time
I watch your fading smile
I'm by your side
Until the clouds take over
Holding on to your hands
As I feel they get colder

I'll stay alive
Here by your side
I'll stay alive
I'll stay alive
