ALTAR

(album: CHRONICLES II: HEAVEN - 2022)

The moment I let you down

Unsound descent
Halfway there and Heaven sent
The loudest when you left
Your final words were deafening
Now they're a part of me

More than a memory
Forever part of me
Now you're apart from me

When I'm gone
Will you remember how
December got colder
The moment that I
When I'm gone
Will you remember how
December got colder
The moment that I let you down

We crawl, we bend, we break
We live like martyrs just to die in vain
Now alas, the cruelest fate
To speak your name and never see your face again

Why do you scream, how could you do this to us?
You left her in the rain
And watched her turn to rust

Do you think melodramatic disgust
Is a guise for pain
If you call it love?

Fuck your chemical heart
You call this love?

Do we really all die alone?
If you're really there
How will I ever know?
If the seas be our graves
And the earth feeds off our bones, well

When I'm gone
Will you remember how
December got colder
The moment that I
When I'm gone
Will you remember how
December got colder
The moment I let you down

When I'm gone
Will you remember how
When I'm gone
Will you remember how
When I'm gone
Will you remember how
The moment I let you down
