They say love is like a cloud
Yours was a damp shallow grave
Did you cry or were you too proud?
I hope you get what you gave
I held us up and the weight pushed me down
So this is the price we must pay
A single rose on a burial mound
That's what's left of this bed that we've made
Tonight
Let the rotten decay
I will never see the night the same way you see it
I'll never lie, the same way that you did
This was your end but it's my beginning
You've changed me, you've changed me, you've changed me
Keep what's left and bury the rest in peace
Here lies, alone in the ground
And so on, the tombstone will say
Rehearsed goodbyes finally spoken out loud
Like an act in some play
I'd dry your tears but there's none to be found
Your grey stormy eyes have betrayed
The feeble pulse of the heart I surround
Alone like the rose here I lay
Tonight
Let the rotten decay
I will never see the night the same way you see it
I'll never lie, the same way that you did
This was your end but it's my beginning
You've changed me, you've changed me, you've changed me
Keep what's left and bury the rest in peace
Rest in peace
I know that there will come a day
When the requiems will play
I'll rise up from my earthly cell screaming a song
That won't be yours
I will never see the night the same way you see it
I'll never lie, the same way that you did
This was your end but it's my beginning
You've changed me, you've changed me, you've changed me
Keep what's left and bury the rest in peace
