lyrics

[chorus:]
The trees lose their leaves
Autumn is the saddest time
I cannot see you
Somniferously
I drift through the cold dark air
I cannot see you

I walk towards you
Trying still to hide from you
Forgetting to speak
And struggling to breathe
I turn back away from you
And you watch me go

[chorus]

He comes closer now
The light goes so far away
I am so alone
Madness is closing
The voices keep on talking
Michael is burning

Burning jealousy
The rope surrounds his whole neck
Now I can see you
Madness is fading
You pull back my sanity
I am whole again

[chorus]

My cardinal sin
Left a room that you were in
I cannot keep you
One of them's not you
But I really did not think
You can't forgive me

I come back to you
The light fades through an old hole
Our symphony plays
Come back to me now
As our time is ending
We need each other

[chorus x2]

I see your life leave
It fades into the darkness
This place is quiet now

[chorus]

Darkness draws nearer
I lay down beside your grave
Our souls are quiet now
