This night's final breath   Wraps a man within it's breast   Heartbeat stops at last and with it   The gathered sigh     Regard me a boy     Fate lies ahead   Only to distance us   Everyone so dear   Must fall away     Pages turn each day   And so we pledge   Treehouse promises   Burn one by one     Those who will comfort me   In the end   Are not but strangers now   And there's no hope   For brothers now, lovers now   Will all disconnect     In this apathy   Already I've lost brethren   Trial   Every transgression is further endearing me  Needed and tearing my insides apart  I look in your eyes and the kinship illuminates   So soon I will see but space   Filled with regret and the loss unspoken   You'll continue down the fucking street   Without a word     You take it away   You take it away   But the image is burned in my eyes   But the vision remains in my mind   And in your pity I've been left behind   But this is the way it has always been   This is the way it shall always be   Love shall corrupt   Friendships shall perish   Distance shall kill me   Slowly with each silent step
