Lyrics
In an unfamiliar place, sorrow clutches at my throat, but I pay it no mind.
Drinking to numb its grasp, stumbling drunk in a city that was once ours but never my own.
We laughed in those streets.
We wandered carelessly through the cold, dark alleyways and for a moment it felt that entropy had released us from its cruel indifferent burden that laid upon our lives.
It was so quiet and I could see your breath in the cold night air;
the snow embracing you as we walked up those stairs.
So many words, so many blurry faces, my head light for the first time... with nothing.
Lost to this grotesque, decadent veil and through the pall of cigarette smoke I saw the red neon light forcing its way onto your pale skin.
It looked like you were bleeding... and it was so beautiful.
So lost in this blissful dream that I couldn't see our long dark shadows that grew in the streetlights…
I couldn't see that you were never really there…
and that you would leave me in the dust and tears of a past I so miserably cling to...
