[Intro] [Verse 1] Black bile blues got me by the throat Can't cry on a coat can't write a quote Hum so melancholic with a heavy sigh Watchin' the good times pass me by [Verse 2] I kissed the mirror, it split in two One face of me, one used-up you My future came with empty hands And drew lines that erased my plans [Bridge] Mother, do you hear me In the frost of my tide? Father, do you see me From the faraway other side? [Chorus] Roaming in the memory of then and now Etched deep within my bleeding how Holding loss as atrabilious within my chest Taught my heart patience by choking its best [After-Chorus] [Verse 3] The walls were full of unsaid things Like severed bells and broken wings If pain is proof that I was real Then let this fracture be my ordeal [Verse 4] And with the white halo above my head Thorns as a ring around a severed heart The moon keeps my questions and answers in scars Says the dead are just distances dressed up as stars [Solo] [Bridge] Father, I can’t climb back Through the throat of the sky, Mother, I am learning How the caring ones die [Chorus] Roaming in the memory of then and now Etched deep within my bleeding how Holding loss as atrabilious within my chest Taught my heart patience by choking its best [Chorus] Roaming in the memory of then and now Etched deep within my bleeding how Holding loss as atrabilious within my chest Taught my heart patience by choking its best [After-Chorus] [Ending] Tell them I loved them with a terrible ache, Tell them I broke and I won´t know if I´m a fake. If I must remain then let me join another tune, For I have mourned enough already alone.
