lyrics

I’ve been trying hard to reach you
now you’re giving up
and the brightest of your eyes has left me blind

so I can no longer see
oh, what might have been
your look lost all its blue, my air is thin

thousands of years gazing
and travelling with the light
have led me to the darkest void of night

where arms are shivering under the horror
how I miss fading into you
daughter of darkness, grip all the sorrow
hold my hand and get me through

those fuzzy dance moves turn light to dust
you’re fading into me
I lost your wavelenght right at the dusk
please, shine on and let me be

I’m fading into you
hold my hand and get me through
you’re fading into me
please, shine on and let me be

so much of the time we just mistreat
and leave beloved ones wander with cold feet
silent passengers in the backseat
missing every chance to finally speak

the time's up
though you had much more stories to tell
oh, I can’t tell
if you were fighting demons in your shell
the skies swell over me

you hide behind the night, beautiful one
as though there is something yet to be said
chords that coalesced now come undone
let echoes pass your soul before they're gone
