i lay beside this burning fire
just close enough to feel warm
the flames are keeping hopes awake

but the night's so cold
that i wonder if it's time to go now
cause in the morning
there'll be nothing

the air sends a shiver
pushing forward
whispered words of guilt
flying over me

altered senses
feel you faintly
standing in the ashes
next to me

silent, searching for her
a shadow i might capture
still i see no one at all

when did your whole silhouette
ever become so hollow

all that's changed to something else
will never return i know

is there a way to seize it all
and let it live inside ourselves ?
all this time waiting for an answer

silent searching
for what i want to save

silent searching
yet another day
for what's left behind
