I Couldn't Save You - Clan Of Xymox

Upon one evening

Clocks whirred and chimed

Let not time deceive you

We cannot unwind the past

I could feel my heart beat

I hear the noisy street and

Now I know, you needed to go

I know, I know, I miss you so

I couldn’t save you

Death made it’s touch

I couldn’t save you

From the reapers grasp

Love leaks away and

Time will have it’s way

It haunts me from the inside

Pounding on my brain

It surrounds my soul and threatens

To swallow me in whole and

I know it was time to go

I know, I know rest your soul

I couldn’t save you

Death made it’s touch

I couldn’t save you

From it’s grasp

Your state is now my come down

I ward off all my thoughts

This is coming home now

Forever you live on in my heart

You lied in a dream state

You understood too well

The grasp for a last breath

Is like water in hell

I couldn’t save you

I couldn’t grasp

I couldn’t save you

From it’s grasp
