Exist and Expire Songtext
von Nieves

Darling leaf you have fallen in front of me
I know that you′re mine because my breath did shake the tree

Apple green your envy is clear to me
I polished your side and left your scent upon my sleeve

The temperature feels different tonight
It's dropped by 10 degrees
In the blink of an eye, when it′s typically mild
Now it's colder than ice

This whiteness surrounds us
And we are sure that we'll die
But not quite yet
There′s this lightning inside us
That makes us dream of a life
Oh its bright, it′s bright

Seep between the walls of my armory
The mould will grow, the fetted smell will take its hold


Gravity allowed you to plant those feet
But it's never been strong enough to hold them next to me

Some will find a meaning to their life
But there is no wrong or right
Just a do or a die, a will to survive- we just exist and expire

This whiteness surrounds us
And we are sure that we′ll die
But not quite yet
There's this lightning inside us
That makes us dream of a life
Oh its bright, it′s bright

And in this hopelessness this dredge through the myre
We exist and expire
We exist and expire

I should be scared but I've not felt this alive
We exist and expire
We exist and expire
