Forever Ended Yesterday Lyrics

Absent-minded malfeasance
A lapse in fondness
(if only)

Thinking of you, wherever you are
Feeling the loss of a limb
Tears fall like autumn leaves
Golden dreams of yesterday smiles

What happens next?
Lights have been off for some time
Lift my head up, try to fix this
Pray

Brace for chariots, brace for cries
Father Dearest, stay my hand
Lethargy and dread take root in my heart
Left to carry it
Brother kinder, listen to me
Loosen your fingers, this is not yours
you've turned your back on yet another

Blow the dust off the pages
One final heartfelt glance

Fall into sea of attestation
Ascend to clearness
See the light of his love
Craving sweet reminder
Of crooked constellations

Open your eyes

I will stain your porcelain complexion
Feel your hands against my face
If I'd only had the will to confess
Everything I left unsaid

Life, empty of companion
Cold and uncomfortable
Time slips from the clutch of my fingers
Breath somehow escapes from me
As I grapple with sin
Time slips from the clutch of my fingers

Smiles
What happens next?
Promises of healing
With every act I ask forgiveness
Those moments
Left behind
