These Absent Eyes

Bloodstained velvet, mercury traced I saw the shadow of death on your face Your gaze wandered off into the stars I realized how fragile we are There was a time when the world was ours But when you're blessed You're not counting the hours I should've known that the end was near But I was busy ignoring my fears In search for something Brighter than the sun All the things I've earned will be no more I'm passive aggressive, prepared to attack I've seen the world but run a constant lack These absent eyes will be disguised As soon as we'll be strong enough to decide Black like silver, baptized by rain You were a stranger 'til I shared your pain This love won't been touched by the light Still it came alive when innocence died You sensed my yearning, I felt your desire You made me a saint and I made you a liar I gave you my weakness, You gave me your strength The guild of my longing is all that remains In search for something Brighter than the sun All the things I've earned will be no more I'm passive aggressive, prepared to attack I've seen the world but run a constant lack These absent eyes will be disguised As soon as we'll be strong enough to decide Bloodstained velvet, mercury traced Black like silver, baptized by rain These absent eyes will be disguised As soon as we'll be strong enough to decide
