As Thoughts Fall
Irrelevant Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll never leave behind
the shattered fragments of a lifetime,
as subtleties remind me for the millionth time.

Separating and falling forward
through what we've changed and all we've come to know.
It seems that our furthest dreams
have found their way into all we are today
I'll rip apart the ageless mass that
has bound its way to my soul forever
And the I'll rip apart the ageless mass that
has unwound its seams
and moving on to dreams.

We want so hard to harness time
but it's our failures that define
(our boundaries and those that make us great)
Testing it all we wanted more
regretting nothing done at all
(My greatest taste of life is still far away)
We grip so hard it slips right through our hands
and grasping for the new
(we seal our fate and realise our fall)
Tears fall as black fades to gray.
Your strength still holds me up today.

I'll never leave behind
the shattered fragments of a lifeline,
as subtleties remind me for the millionth time.
I'll never leave behind
the shattered remnants of our bloodlines.
Realities divide as memories and thoughts fall

We want so hard to harness time
but it's our failures that define
(our boundaries and those that make us great)
Testing it all we wanted more
regretting nothing done at all
(My greatest taste of life is still far away)
We grip so hard it slips right through our hands
and grasping for the new
(we seal our fate and realise our fall)
Tears fall as black fades to gray.
Your strength still holds me up today.

We seal our fate and hurt no more
We yearn the same but then we dream no more

I'll never leave behind (all gone)
the shattered fragments of a lifeline, (So long)




as subtleties remind (No more.)
me for the millionth time. (As thoughts fall)
