The shadows of your memory
When you held your hand in mine
Shimmering in infatuation beneath the stars
Of thought, of all the time in the world

Did my sordid heart confuse this distance for failure?
That could be the only reason why

Disinterest and isolation, obssession and wonder
Nothingness and void, which take precedence over all
It came back to you
Compelled by false memories, by obssessions
Created in morbid darkness
When your hand brushed mine

Quaked by unsettling paranoia, of tremors deep
Within my soul
Erupting into finality, into a lonesome abyss
Like so many times before
Gazing in the distance, a twisting horror

An obssession upheld by a shivering heart
The tidings of fate shall not grace me here

My memories will serve no lesson again here
And what means something shall soon fade
But you can never truly perish from my breast
I cannot recognise who I was from before

The shadows of your memory
When you held your hand in mine
Shimmering in infatuation beneath the stars
Of thought, of all the time in the world

Did my sordid heart confuse this distance for failure?
That could be the only reason why

It came back to you
Compelled by false memories, by obssessions
Created in morbid darkness
When your hand brushed mine

Unable to breathe, a conduit for all my pain
Unable to release, remaining stagnant
Even now, my dreams remain infested with your presence
I wish this dark love would end
