about

A song about guilt and regret.

lyrics

It hurts
The cut is getting deeper
And I am getting weaker
From the wasteland
in my head

It bleeds
and I am slowly fading
The light is slowly shading
From this melancholy dream

And I dream
If a day when pain is swallowed
And love is sure to follow
And the rain will wash away
The blood on my hands

I lay
Beneath these broken wings
And all my shattered dreams
From the scars within
My life

I die
From the memory of splendor
And moments held so tender
Before the last
Descent

And I dream
Of a day when hope returns
At last
Where agony dies fast
And the rain will wash away
The blood on my hands

AND I BLEED
TILL MY ESSENCE FADES TO BLACK
AND EVERY MEMORY IS SPILLED
AND THERE’S NO GOING BACK
AND I BLEED
TILL MY BODY GOES NUMB
AND THE EMPTINESS HAS WON
YET SOMEHOW I STILL BREATHE

and I dream
I can overcome this feeling
Of never ending bleeding
And the rain will wash away
The blood on my hands
And I dream
Of the fight still left inside me
And instinct left to guide me
And the rain will wash away
The blood on my hands

The blood on my hands...
