so we lost everything
with the world bathed in sunlight
in the bittersweet morning after

this realisation is
always the hardest part
of living in motionless seasons

yet we saw ourselves as nothing
everlasting yet meaningless
but we're each destined to leave a scar

well isn't this just sweet
a hidden paradise in your mind
but deception is the weakness
- it won't see us through

i thought i found the answer
fragmented, by your eyes
awoke and found my place
'til i saw the blackened skies

i thought i found the meanings
hidden in our lies
arose and felt the taste
of a brave new world dawning

no sympathy nor tears
washed away in the downpour
like everything else in this light

and as the ashes fall from the skies above
know i'm no longer afraid
not with you by my side
