The very brightest

candle of all has been extinguished

Smothered by those who could not bear to face

reality

Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart

Made foundations quiver

Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break

And I shiver

The leftover tallow just doesn't contain all the right answers

Under a sea of dust lies a vast wealth of wisdom

(As untouched snow turns red, innocence dies)

Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart

Made foundations quiver

Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break

And I shiver

This black page in history is not colourfast, will stain the next

All that remains is just a feint of what was meant to be

This black page in history is not colourfast, will stain the next

And nothing seems in life, in dreams like what was meant to be

Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart

Made foundations quiver

Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break

And I shiver
