lyrics

hear the sound of dreams
in need for a devil’s advocate
with nothing to blame
yet justice to be made
knowing that even
self-love is a true art
the scouring sun
burns your dreams away

dare to think dare to live
the star that once shone
is now a sunken pearl
and I was a coward at the time
I constantly clamped onto it

when we spoke our last words
when we sang our last song
memories have always died alone
never joined by dreams yet to come

when we spoke our last words
when we sang our last song
memories have always died alone
never joined by dreams yet to come

there is one fact that you’ll remember
before your eyes are shut forever
ignoring a dream is not as innocent as it seems
because the future will bring back bitterness
out of the mind where all of this used to sleep
it would’ve been better if this book was kept unread
and I try to fill these bad memories with new dreams
but it’s not what it seems
I try to wake up and forget
before our eyes are shut forever

I remember your burden
why should I want to weep
about the lies you defined
and the truth you named deceit
while words are not palpable
it's strength that makes them real
to confront certain dreams
we're not hopeless beings

darling let me tell you a secret
about the truth and the lies you made up
knowing less is sometimes better
controlling everything used to slow you down

I think about the words that you utter
perceived as an innocent tale
the unsophisticated way of words
how my dreams showed me the way

when we spoke our last words
when we sang our last song
