lyrics

Like a fable etched in stone
I thought our story was forever
The fact that I'd end up alone
I would have believed never
Like an icon of the past
Your memory stays true
And if I feel an angel's presence
I'm only thinking of you

In a tower high above I can see you playing with yr hair
Sometimes I wonder if you ever cry, or if you even care
And if I leave this mortal shell behind please don't be scared
I brought this on myself
And this is the cross that I must bear

Like a ship in murky water
A thousand miles away from shore
I just trying to find an island
before I'm thrown overboard
The only peaceful moments when I can finally rest my head
Are when I'm thinking of all those sweet nothings we both said

Being such a jealous bastard really takes it's toll
The gaping jaws of Leviathan are going to swallow me whole
And if we leave this love behind I'm sure you'll find a nice replacement
I found the bottom of the bottomless pit
But I have heard that there might also be a basement

There's a basement

Open the door to the basement
Now I can finally face it
End of an era of my life

Giving my soul to the evening
I can't believe I'm not dreaming
I present my final sacrifice

Keep going, underground,
You'll miss them less if you are not around
