Lyric

Cherry lips, July, it was 1989

What’s the way she went through her life?

Passed away at ease? No regret and no pain?

Does the earth lie light and free from strife?

Feel invincible

But our cracks just show through

Dreamt of things I’ll never do

“Seize the day” they say

“Find your path, make your days”

Daydream, madness ’n fantasy

Now I am a grown up

Innocence fade to gray

Tight the weight ‘round my neck

Walking down this weary alley

At the square I once played

Faded notes and all the unseen faces

City lights, they stayed

Cherry lips, July, it was 1989

What’s the way she went through life?

Chopped wings old scars

She dragged hopes to the grave?

Nothing more was left to say?

Pulled by strings you can’t see

Heavy where the fire used to be

Get along with being done

All the rest is only entropy

At the square I once played

Faded notes and all the unseen faces

City lights, they stayed

Lies!, not what I wanted

I couldn’t stand the struggle

Crashed by doubts, I played safe

Fallen hard, I lost the battle

Now I know it’s too late

Missed the chance that I’ve been longing for, oh

You threw it all away
