lyrics

greater things have chased us all away
we never found a reason to remain
bitter ends erase the old refrain
the softer cheek will feed the weaker flame
on the fall, we've come to feel ashamed
for what we will never find again
"take it all," the tears were fallin down,
"she can't erase what's taken from the ground."

look down under while you can, fate will wait for the upperhand
stand before I, fine feather
philomena, hold anchors around me. around you.

I am alone
I never share
dreams cracked upon
melt to thin air
