From the recording All That Shines
Lyrics
I watch you slowly disappearing
Like a shadow in the shade
Like the darkest eyes that stare into a pitch black sky
Oh, I watch you turn to rain
You cannot be so unforgiving
When you're the reason for the fall
And you held so tight that your embrace choked everything
Left in the thrall
Burn it all away
Sounded good at the time
And now you want to stay
To save all that shines
To save all that shines
No hero's welcome for the suffering
Like so many times before
And it's such a shame that something so pure could lose its way
Sprawled out across the floor
Burn it all away
Sounded good at the time
And now you want to stay
To save all that shines
To save all that shines
Long gone, the words that need repeating
I can't bear to hear them no more
And I've kept alive everything you left behind
All you said was yours
Burn it all away
Sounded good at the time
And now you want to stay
To save all that shines
To save all that shines
To save all that shines
To save all that shines
