Lyrics
The fire and silence
Love and violence
Dissolving like water
With salt at the bottom
Of my heart
Drowning our sorrows in borrowed tomorrows
And waking on Monday
When last night was Friday
The empty feeling of wasted time
I love you more with every passing minute
We are the star-crossed lovers
Like Blake and Amy
Destined for greatness
But bound for failure
The fear is what drives every human behavior
And pushed us to live this meaningless life
To the absolute limit
You know me like no one
Yet still, you surprise me
Not perfect but ready to keep on fighting
For growing older together, forever
No matter how hard, no matter how hard
Limiting chances of escape tactics
Take ‘no’ for an answer, and winning is out of question
You rest with your eyes closed
I kiss your warm forehead
And pray for this day to
Never, ever, ever end…
