lyrics

the choir begins

I love the end, I love you
I live on words I can't say
I love the end, I love you
your smile ends today

indifference waits for yesterday to catch up with the thoughts I make
dreaming over silken waves of airbrushed grass and oil paint
our hands are one, yet there's still a gap that keeps the lake
I question myself, but that's tomorrow's mistake

I love the end, I love you
I live on words I can't say
I love the end, I love you
your smile ends today

stares and cries to dawn, halifax has frozen time
cherry-colored gods, paradise is past it's prime
daydreams enter dusk, smiles turn to dust
echoes damn my lust, morning bells begin to chime

my gleams will die and the tide is high, I can't believe
if I don't reason, do I even call it love
the radio begins to hide

I love the end, I love you
I live on words I can't say
I love the end more than I love you
your smile ends today

I have now become the reason
light never escapes
I have now left the seasons
up to your fate

systems die and drift apart
I just ask when my life will start
the stars begin and make their descent
I just ask when my life will end

the wall on which the prophets wrote is cracking at the seams
the eyes I've never seen before have scared away my dreams
the words I never meant to say have broken me apart
oh, heavens to betsy, please forgive my words, my heart

(it's a bit serious but I can't help myself sometimes. what am I even saying anyway)

you’re incomplete
be my stone, and crush me

you’re incomplete
be my wish, my dream

we’re incomplete
wishes burn and bleed

some eyes defeat
yours just hide, and weep

godbreath has swept my eyes off my feet
god bless thee, "have me a mess, break my day, here we stand, in folly and fae"
