It's born out of the empty heart
Infiltrates my inside like a shadow
Sink in me, I feel the taste of goodbye
You're living like a ghost
That creeps inside of me
You’re living like a ghost
I saw you there every time I close my eyes
I keep on trying to grasp the moment
You’re so intangible
Despite my every sense of your touch
I felt safe staring in your phantom
You haunt me
Sleep is the cousin of death
Shake off my every burden
Swelling in my dream
Stormy but silent
I feel it pricking slowly in my body
The elegy
I won’t write back anymore
You’re all I wanted
This is the elegy
That I won’t write back anymore
You’re all I want
Things won't go back
Back to how it was
It's so clear in my head
As the words decay, they won’t be the same
The truth hangs me up on the wall
The truth hangs me up on the wall
All this agony will hunt me down to death
Just like you did
I only wake to face the decay in me
Decay in me
The pain makes me want to lose myself
You haunt me
Sleep is the cousin of death
Shake off my every burden
Swelling in my dream
Stormy but silent
I feel it pricking slowly in my body
The elegy
I won’t write back anymore
The endless fate
Whom I see in the mirror is still unchanged
I'm not asking you to let me go
Forgetting you is to lose myself
I only wake to the decay in me
The pain has put me in the deepest coma
And whom I see in the mirror is grieving out
The burden swells, piles up on me
It’s weighing me down
You’re all I wanted
The only thing I could never forget
This is the elegy
I won’t write back anymore
