Husk

(álbum: Monument - 2020)

It seems like yesterday
You took my breath away
How could the world still turn?
We're not what we thought we were

Must you be leaving so soon, so soon, so soon, oh?
I was just falling for you, for you, for you
I'm sorry I'm late, I was ablaze
I was just starting on hoping you'd stay
Must you be leaving so soon, soon?

The death of a century
Has sunken its teeth in me
How the hands of the clock
Are beating to death
Our memory

I'm older than the man
I was when I began
What use is breathing in
If I'm nothing more than skin?

Must you be leaving so soon, so soon, so soon, oh?
I was just falling for you, for you, for you now
I held my tongue when we were young
Holding my horses but jumping the gun
I must be aging now too, too

The death of a century
Has sunken its teeth in me
How the hands of the clock
Are beating to death
Our memories

Must you be leaving so soon, so soon, so soon?
