Moments
Daylight Torn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Breathing silence these mornings, sadness spreads its bitter taste
Mourning pearls of thy tears, forever carved in my skin
I roam alone in this darkness, solitude awakens my fears
"All that wa wish to stay, tempts and then dissapears
How frail are our visions on the thin ice of living
Will the days ease the sorrow, will our fate end the hurt?
Along the years or tomorrow, or never?
I see your face in the window, your eyes piercing my brain
Just a fake not a wonder, moments I wish I was gone
"Tangled in memories that come back to haunt me
Our withered emotions I grief for do wound me
I writhe in my dreams when the dark hours creep
Amid our hearts sadness, moments of peace - as we die
