Shadows Lyrics

Rose petals wither on the floor
as I am left to douse the candles
and close the door.
Drawing the shades to complete the darkness,
drawing the shades...
shadows have never seemed so empty.

Everything that she has taken from me,
there was so much left to say.
And by the chill that she left with me,
I feel I should be able to see my breath.

Rose petals wither on the floor
as I am left to douse the candles
and close the door.
Drawing the shades to complete the darkness
of what was once so sweet;
there is nothing left but a memory.
As the smoke fills the room,
a murky suspension blurs the dim light.

Golden stars of dust suspended,
shining for the days that once were.
Longing, yearning, reminiscing you,
my only source of light in this darkness.

Rose petals wither on the floor
as I am left to douse the candles
and close the door.
Drawing the shades,
for what lies beyond the pane?

I remember when we had everything,
back when you could tell me anything.
Never have I felt such worthlessness;
now I know I will live in emptiness.
