lyrics

Your stare is a coward's lair--
There's no turning back--
There's no looking back--
There are only depths,
Comfort colored in black.

Desire is lifted in the coffined air.
You roil and you recoil away,
You knew that you weren't going to stay.

Sounds and visions of you fade away.
Your eyes a camera's shudder permanently stuck in place.
No one was wrong, but no one was right,
We misled each other in well-shrouded lies.

You must let me get out of here!
You must let me get out of here!

The evening smiles on our crippled fate.
The sun disappears as you walk away.
No one was wrong, but no one was right,
Leprous memories retreat into the night.

Love is a Lazarus cave.
Love is a floating grave.
Love is a cameoed sun.
Love is a sentimental shun.
