lyrics

Blinded by my rust while keeping a smile so clean
Sinking below your sea's and flooding beaches
Covered wrapped in blanket, while tightening to your breath
You're face turned stiff and sneering at the broken pieces

Shadowed in your footsteps to keep me black & white
Holding our palms in likeness while standing through the night
The sounds we made of silence kept us closer in our sight
We're falling farther away, we'll stray as the day moves passed us

Separating through the times of which we grew up so fair
Our ageless face of love keeps on guessing
With the memories stuck between us that we hold within our ties
Free falling down a wish as we are wrecking

Reaching for a reason to keep this hope alive
Agreeing with uncertainty as we struggle and we strive
On a perfect poetic picture of our hands held five on five
We're falling farther away, we'll stray as the day moves passed us

Cold, shivered & gutted as my eyes stare down you're frame
Blistered by my bridges, burned & broken
Soaked in a sunken ocean, falling hard like a stone
Holding my breath as you left me softly spoken

Blurring a faceless image that's stuck inside my mind
Tearing away a memory that's kept us so close in time
Forgetting a forgotten dream that took us so long to find
We're falling farther away, we'll stray as the day moves passed us
