these echoes play across her footsteps in the undertow, fading through your winter   and all the places that we used to know   colder still these feelings drown beneath your feet in velvet sounds   you bring me here, and bring me home and hold me close, and hold me down      it's a change, it's a turn it's the wrong way in a city paved with time   it's a heart, it's a burn, it's a reason and all the blame was mine   it's a night, it's a time for breaking it's a throb in a soul unfurled   it's a loss, it's a bridge of silence from here to the end of the world      and all we were burns slowly in dying fires and falling trees   and we become just one more reaching hand slipped deep into the sea   these fading eyes can't catch the light so far in front of me   that shines from all you tried to hold and throbs forth to bury me      it's a sin, it's a lie, holy water that never removes the stains   it's a drug, it's a fix, it's a mainline of the purest form of pain   it's a word it's a page of promises that are always broken (but always remain)   it's a drown at the hands of poseidon, it will never be, it will never be the same...
