Etiolation

(album: The Banished Heart - 2018)

The colors fading from within
I feel the veins retract beneath my skin
Feel it down to my bones
The way darkness creeps when you're alone

Can you see my flames awaken?
Can you give me no relief?
Can you turn away this weakness?
Will you walk away from me?

What's owed has brought me to my knees
The feelings I get when I try to breathe

The good parts don't remain
We waltz into the end
I know this place
You take from me for gain
You take my love in vain
And here we are the same as before

Could you believe
The other side of bliss is misery?
Could you believe
The other side of bliss is misery?

Wait for the fall
Wait for the end
Wait for the fall
Wait for the end
Wait for the fall
Wait for the end
The end of us all
Wait for the fall

Ahhhh... ahhhh

Deceiver, faithless
Holding onto nothingness

Weighted down by our faults
Left to die alone in our thoughts

The good parts don't remain
We waltz into the end
I know this place
You take from me for gain
You take my love in vain
And we are the same as before
