Transparent Heart Syndrome
A Thousand Falling Skies Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't open my mouth to say the words
I want to say to you
Insted I close my eyes and wish you well on your way
Out of my Arms
Today we part our hearts
And say goodbye to yesterday
As if our lips never touched
As if our hearts never gave into this love

Your face staring back at me off in the distance
With a grin so wide, I could not bare it
This is where fairytales end
And nightmares begin

To see your eyes so blinding
To see your face so blinded by your sight

Line by Line Meaning

I can't open my mouth to say the words
I am unable to express my feelings to you verbally

I want to say to you
There are things I wish to tell you

Instead I close my eyes and wish you well on your way
I think positive thoughts for you silently

Out of my Arms
I am letting you go

Today we part our hearts
We are breaking up

And say goodbye to yesterday
We are leaving our past behind

As if our lips never touched
It feels like we never kissed before

As if our hearts never gave into this love
We are disregarding our past romance

Your face staring back at me off in the distance
I catch a glimpse of you from far away

With a grin so wide, I could not bear it
Your happy smile pains me to see

This is where fairytales end
Our storybook romance has come to a close
