about

This song references a book titled Beneath a Marble Sky.

lyrics

The sight of a dream so disheartening
This picturesque scene seems to mock misery so blissfully
I’ve been out of love longer than I can remember
I can’t digest happiness and closeness I can’t process
The clouds parted and I saw no end to me
Everyone’s strange in their dreams

Nothing can save us
Brace for your touch
Shiver the blood rush
I feel your bones when we touch
Nothing can save us from ourselves
Nothing can save us

Letters in the sky a metaphor you and I
How we’re never going to survive to rival the marble sky
It’ll crush us and we’ll die, die, die
The double-edged sword of faith
So heavy in arms, on tip toes the skinniest of loves
A monument of blood
Dreams will reign with penalty

Wanting you was suicide, believing in lies
You I fantasize dreaming of you when I close my eyes
My everything all that I dreamed
Living in a make-believe land
Something to believe in
Begging give me reason
The thought of you and I
The reason I rise faith in which we rely
Seeing you in my eyes, tears run dry
Gave me faith, made me feel
Wanting you was suicide, believing in lies
You I fantasize dreaming of you when I close my eyes
My everything all that I dreamed
Living in a make-believe land
Something to believe in
Begging give me reason

Letters in the sky a metaphor you and I
How we’re never going to survive to rival the marble sky
It’ll crush us and we’ll die, die, die
Souls will rise to face the gates
Truth fall our fates, come to late
My heart grew heavier and heavier
Until it sank
Nothing can save us

So heavy in arms, on tip toes the skinniest of loves
A part of me wants to believe
But sometimes I forget to breath
Part of me never stopped grieving
Oh, the penalties of dreaming, dreaming oh
A monument of blood
Dreams will reign with penalty
Making love in my dreams no it wasn’t me
Crying in my dreams
No, it wasn’t me but my body attempting to scream
Begging give me reason
