The memory traveller Lyrics

The summer heat

Came to me

But I wouldn't

Kiss your lips

Like I used to do

When I was at peace

At peace with my

Whole soul

You were as dry

As a crumbling wall

You were as cold

As a still breath

Slowing down the beats

In my pounding heart

Leaving pure air

Outside my lungs

The winter cold

Came to me

But I wouldn't

Lick your lips

Like I used to do

When I was at war

At war with my

Crushed soul

You were as pale

As a passing ghost

You were as far

As a moving star

Nailing down to earth

My highest hopes

Spitting poison

Inside my lungs

He's yet to come

And closed the heart

Like a fire on which water falls

Like a sun whose flame

Doesn't heat

He lost his eyes

In the fire

In the fire

Reaching out

In the wind

Following

Withering eyes

Memories opened wide

A drawer full of

Old stillshots

Memories scared

A mind full of

Dead and empty

Thoughts
