The End To A Brief Moment Of Lasting Intimacy

(albüm: The Romance Of Affliction - 2021)

Strangers held so close, cherish while we can
Replace my name, we've fallen out of grace
Believe every waking lie till angels say goodbye
Don't confess, our halo's faded

Betray the coveted
You still entice and have a taste for
Every solemn gaze we say by name, and the tension tastes sweet

Map out the harmony, and yet the song is still unsung
You lay eyes wide shut

Take my hand like it's the only thing worth reaching for (Reaching for)
Place the blame, you're not the only one whose bleeding

You're pacing, just wasting time
It's a remorseless act
A brand new interaction

Pray to ourselves
No God

Strangers held so close, cherish while we can
Save your breath, your voice is growing faint
Believe every waking lie till angels say goodbye
Just pace yourself, the passion's fading

The passion's fading
We won't be interlocked in the end

Que sera
What's bloomed from lust
Our siren's now silent (Say you'll never go)
Oh the songs we sang, now they're gone

Fade away, but I can still feel your touch
Say you won't go back

Take my hand like it's the only thing worth reaching for (Reaching for)
Place the blame, you're not the only one whose bleeding
Take my hand like it's the only thing worth reaching for (You're pacing, just wasting time, it's a remorseless act, I always got this impression)
Place the blame, you're not the only one whose bleeding (My conscience is killing time, but there's a part of me that's pleading)
