Wrapped by your scent, Blinded by your beauty. You were my sun, And I was your Icarus. You and I were like living in our utopia; You choked reality into me, Now it's dystopia. Now it's all past; A thread of your memories, Your absence turned into a needle, And made me bleed. But still I tried. I tried and I tried to fly above, to reach you, So I could get inside your ribcage, Feel embraced by your flesh and skin. Maybe then I could connect with your veins; And I could reach you, Your heart, Your brain, Your everything. But no, you burned my fragile wings, And stopped me from reaching you. And I fell. As I was falling I saw you devouring me. My skin burned. You hid within the crack of my burned skin, You remain there, with pain intact.

Fading Soul I: Falling
Wrapped by your scent, Blinded by your beauty. You were my sun, And I was your Icarus. You and I were like living in our utopia; You choked reality into me, Now it's dystopia.

I tried and I tried to fly above, to reach you, So I could get inside your ribcage, Feel embraced by your flesh and skin. Maybe then I could connect with your veins; And I could reach you, Your heart, Your brain, Your everything. But no, you burned my fragile wings, And stopped me from reaching you. And I fell.
