Swallow the Sun - From Happiness to Dust
It's getting late my old friend
It's time to go now
Say goodbye to all we had
And set these torn sails away
You broke me down to pieces
Like you always did
I'm ready to sleep now
This tomb of my heart
Turned happiness to dust
Days changed to lifetimes
Of promises and rust
All friends around me
From happiness and dust
And I'm ready to go now
Where I won't be lost
Happiness to dust
Have you come to take me home
Last rays of the evening sun
With the dream to where I belong
To the meadows of unsung songs
I'm scarred for lifetimes in here
Worn dowm in these battles
I'm ready to sleep now
I dragged all these shadows behind me
Until they grew into a part of me
But I never wanted it to happen
All the steps I took
I took them for the happiness of others
But they all burned me down
Burnt like an emtpy book
I unfolded my wings to their darkness
Stepped into all those rooms of shadows
Tookk those silver bullets
To shield their hearts
But I'm too wounded now
From these battles
Please let me fall into a sleep
Of beauty for a while
It's getting lat my old friend
It's time to go now
Say goodbye to all we had
And set these torn sails away
Worn down in these battles
I'm ready to sleep now
This tomb of my heart
Turned happiness to dust
Days changed to lifetimes
Of promises and rust
All friends around me
From happiness and dust
And I'm ready to go now
Where I won't be lost
