I remember when I used to carry you to bed Kiss your cheek and then your forehead And it seemed back then that finally something was permanent Maybe I even believed in perfection until it all got ripped away I painted the walls a lavender-grey That was always your favourite shade I know And I keep the curtains open wide I know you liked the warmth of the sunlight Because you were always mine Now your skin just feels like glass And your eyes have no life left Your hair doesn't grow Your face doesn't glow now So I keep the lights on bright Just staring at a single moment Because it's all that's left; photographs These soulless, static portraits I hope you know that I can't let you go (I just have to learn to live without you here) Lost my perception of time And you're always on my mind - won't disappear No, I won't forget you Your scent still lingers in the air And when I close my eyes I feel you there Memories etched into places and possessions Reminiscence follows me everywhere Leaving such heavy impressions And it hurts so much to know there's nothing I can do When the only feeling as powerful as your love came when I lost you There's nothing I can do; I've already lost you There's nothing I can do - there's nothing I can do now because Now your skin just feels like glass And your eyes have no life left Your hair doesn't grow Your face doesn't glow now So I keep the lights on bright Just staring at a single moment Because it's all that's left; photographs These soulless, static portraits I know you won't be back tomorrow So drain my veins and leave me hollow Because you were the air I breathed Just cut me open and watch me bleed I know you won't be back tomorrow So drain my veins and leave me hollow Because you were the air I breathed Just cut me open - watch me bleed I know you won't be back tomorrow So drain my veins and leave me hollow Because you were the air I breathed Just cut me open - watch me bleed I hope you know that I can't let you go (I just have to learn to live without you here) Lost my perception of time And you're always on my mind - won't disappear I'm not ready to say goodbye - I'm not ready to let you die I'm not ready I remember when I used to carry you to bed Kiss your cheek and then your forehead...
