Lyrics

The very brightest candle of all has been extinguished
Smothered by those who could not bear to face reality
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
And I shiver
The leftover tallow just doesn't contain
All the right answers
Under a sea of dust lies a vast wealth of wisdom
As untouched snow turns red
Innocence dies
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
And I shiver
This black page in history is not colourfast
Will stain the next
All what remains is just a feint of what was meant to be
This black page in history is not colourfast
Will stain the next
And nothing seems in life
In dreams like what was meant to be
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
And I shiver
I shiver
