Wax Idols Ashes
[Verse 1]
How many masks can one face hold?
How many different lives?
It's gotten out of my control
100 pairs of closing eyes
Alice falling down her well
I'm grasping at the straws
One will lead me to myself
And one will be the cause
Of all of my glittering delusions
All my whispers, all my depths
And the source of my confusion
Is in the secrets that I've kept
[Verse 1]
So I am waiting for the sun
To break me
I am waiting for the sun
To take me
[Verse 2]
I miss the way the colors spill
Into the world at dawn
And hug the canvas that they fill
Received by all with open arms
With every year that passes by
My memories turn grey
Blackened ash in morning light -
That's the only way
I'll ever escape this long-kiss violence
Wasted days in silence
Endless
Lifeless
Fiending
Feeding
Trapped inside myself
[Chorus]
So I am waiting for the sun
To break me
I am waiting for the sun
To take me
I am waiting for the sun
To break me
I am waiting for the sun
To take me
[Bridge]
Now he's rising
For the last time
And just for one moment...
I feel alive
With sun & skin that bleeds for a dying world
Bleeding for the girl I used to know
Reaching for the hand I used to hold
It's time to go
[Outro]
With sun & skin that bleeds for a dying world
Bleeding for the girl I used to know
Just let her go
Just let her go
With sun & skin that bleeds for a dying world
Bleeding for the girl I used to know
Just let her go
Just let her go
With sun & skin that bleeds for a dying world
Bleeding for the girl I used to know
Just let her go
Just let her go
With sun & skin that bleeds for a dying world
Bleeding for the girl I used to know
Just let her go
Just let her go
