Aurelia - LANKS

I walk among the trees in the evening

Shadows that have opened in my mind

A heaviness slows my breathing

Somehow it speeds up time

Ascending from a cold stone wall

With jagged rocks cutting as I climb

Fading as I softly fall

Whisper to me where I lie

I’ll still love you when the morning comes

The morning never felt so bad

Do you ever really think about me?

The morning never felt so…

I’ll still love you when the moon it falls

You whisper to my wounded soul

So bitter but it tastes so sweet

I swam through a river I saw

Swimming under glass sheets three feet deep

I guess that’s why I didn’t hear you call

Caught up in emotions I can’t speak

Dear lover I am all exposed

Illuminated in your glow

I always knew I’d end up alone

Forever haunted by your ghost

I’ll still love you when the morning comes

The morning never felt so bad

Do you ever really think about me?

The morning never felt so

I’ll still love you when the moon it falls

You whisper to my wounded soul

So bitter but it tastes so sweet

Your love is a poison arrow through my heart

I try in vain to elude it

You paint me in your picture, distill me in your art

A heavy brush won’t remove it

I’ll still love you when the morning comes

The morning never felt so bad

Do you ever really think about me?

The morning never felt so

I’ll still love you when the moon it falls

You whisper to my wounded soul

So bitter but it tastes so sweet
