Plasticine

(álbum: Painwave - 2019)

There's a place I keep the saddest memories
Whilst I wait for time to wash their colours away
Still some days seem as crystal clear as yesterday
Like they're branded on the front side of my brain

And I remember your face swollen
Purple, blue and green
And your eyes couldn't open
Glued from blood and tears
And your bones were broken
Cracked from ear to ear
It was like you were made of plasticine
I was 7 you were 17
And it was the saddest thing I'd ever seen
God help me I can't face the memory

Your smile is like the brightest headlights
Always seems to light the darkest road ahead
And I looked up to you like little brothers do
And that's why it hurts me everytime
When I think back to that day I can't forget

And I remember your face swollen
Purple, blue and green
And your eyes couldn't open
Glued from blood and tears
And your bones were broken
Cracked from ear to ear
It was like you were made of plasticine
I was 7 you were 17
And it was the saddest thing I'd ever seen
God help me I can't face the memory

As the years go by the pictures start to fade
Still I don't know why I can't remember much
But I remember your face

Swollen
Purple, blue and green
And your eyes couldn't open
Glued from blood and tears
Cause your bones, your bones were broken
Cracked from ear to ear
It was like you were made of plasticine
I was 7 you were 17
And it was the saddest thing I'd ever seen
God help me I can't shake the memory
