Lyrics

[00:41.774] You wait by the window
[00:46.158] Morning's breath on the sill
[00:49.993] Idle hands given another try
[00:53.376] So you wait and you savour the moment
[00:57.744] Outside the canvas turned white
[01:01.457] Ruby eyes in the fog
[01:21.877] Rain washing clean all the sins
[01:25.914] A liquid gown that covers all
[01:29.603] Your loathe turns endless
[01:33.435] Opened mirage soothes your sense
[01:37.931] Locked on the pinnacle
[01:40.907] The best secret within
[02:36.045] Like a derelict child
[02:40.417] Heart burning for a stranger
[02:44.142] Ascending to the meek
[02:47.801] Flock round the liars in awe
[03:27.565] Caked in the soil beneath
[03:31.292] Fear me when we meet
[03:34.856] Turn away in admiration
[03:38.596] My firm grip round the nucleus of joy
[04:03.939] Enough of this
[04:07.237] You will leave me now
[04:11.368] You will see it now
[04:14.989] Perish at my hands
[05:46.798] Close to you, tangled up in hair
[05:54.443] Fresh stigma looks, shall I take you with me
[06:01.853] And it is cold, ruby eyes in the fog
[06:09.384] It is me
[06:38.071] And you are just like them all
[06:41.656] Stained by the names of fathers
[06:45.888] I'm greeting my downward fall
[06:48.805] Leaving the throes to others
[06:52.965] And you are just like them all
[06:56.020] Stained by the names of fathers
[06:59.897] I'm greeting my downward fall
[07:03.173] Leaving the throes to others
