The very brightest candle of all has been extinguished
Smothered by those who could not bear to face reality

Every beat of your heart
Tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver

Every wave in the lake caused
The porcelain to break
And I shiver…

The leftover tallow just doesn't contain
All the right answers
Under a sea of dust lies a vast wealth of wisdom 

An untuched snow turns red
Innocence dies

Every beat of your heart
Tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver

Every wave in the lake caused
The porcelain to break
And I shiver…

This black page in history is not colourfast,
Will stain the next

All that remains is just a feint of what was meant to be
This black page in history is not colourfast,

Will stain the next
And nothing seems in life,
In dreams like what was meant to be

Every beat of your heart
Tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver

Every wave in the lake caused 
The porcelain to break
And I shiver...
