Late night but the Moon shines bright
It paves a way to a cottage on the hillside
Rotten wood from the dying trees
Barely keeping hold

Each motion makes a creak
In this frozen tomb
My own cerebral room
Behind the casket, you
Here I lay

I can feel it in my chest again
That sinking, drowning, vacant pain
Another day with words left unsaid
Another day closer to the end

He takes my hands
Lying on the ground
Places them above

I swear I'm here, can't you hear me breathe?

I've come to know the fire burns slow
It burns a light, the size of my head
And even if the embers start to fade
I still know the only way is down

Can you feel it in your chest now
Does it bring you down
Does it burden you?

Do you finally understand
The weight of what
I’ve been holding for you

In this empty house
Cold air blows around
Wallpaper peeling down

They lift me from the bed
Decide it’s been enough
I can hear every word

He takes my hands
Lying on the ground
Places them above
