echoes Songtext
von auburn

Your voice echoes through
The walls of this house
A silent noise you kept and
Held to the clouds
I think the serpent′s sliding in
Cause this is when it comes to an end
And now you walk away
When I hoped that you'd just stay


And on the outside
Your hands are covered in snake bites
Overcast skies
And I lost you to the night

I′ll stare at my face in the water
Won't you see any farther?
I'm gripping your hand even harder
Hoping you′ll run from the slaughter
God, but the pain I′ve felt
I'm cursing this hand that I′ve been dealt
So I'll choose myself
Why did I choose myself?


So please, I hoped you′d stay
Diseased, the wilted bouquet
Why has the river run dry
When all I hear are your cries?
