Knell Songtext
von Zeolite

I remember not too long ago
With that chipped tooth smile- through the cigarette smoke
I remember not so long ago
The thunder down the hall->wretched coughing choke
The time was there
The signs were there
But you were blind
Declined the help
Denied yourself

Now just a dimming light
Flickering faintly inside
Faltering lucidity
Fault of your ornery
I pulled and you pushed
In this tug of war
You pushed and I pulled
And I shut the door


All I have left is a tattered tapestry of fading memories
Fragmented and fractured, glazed with grief to cover my shame

I remember when it started small
Benign forgetful nature metastasised into more
I remember when you didn′t know my name
I remember all the anger all the same
I wish I didn't
I wish you′d listened
We both held on with a tight grip but
I had to let go and watch you slip

How do you live with yourself when you walk away?
The clouds have parted but everything is still so grey
I lie to myself saying I did everything I could
Sometimes I wonder if you even tried
Sometimes I wonder if you even fucking tried

All I have left is a tattered tapestry of broken memories
Fragmented and fractured, glazed with grief to cover my shame

I closed the door and shut you out
I closed the door
Oh how I want that bell to ring again
