Lirieke: From Autumn to Ashes. Autumn Monologue.
Oh why can't I be what you need?
A new improved version of me
But I'm nothing so good, no, I'm nothing
Just bones, a lonely ghost burning down songs
Of violence, of love and of sorrow
I beg for just one more tomorrow
Where you hold me down, fold me in
Deep, deep, deep in the heart of your sins
I break in two over you
I break in two and each piece of me dies
And only you can give the breath of life
But you don't see me, you don't
Here I'm pinned between darkness and light
Bleached and blinded by these nights
Where I'm tossing and tortured 'til dawn
By you, visions of you then you're gone
The shock bleeds the red from my face
When I hear someone's taken my place
How could love be so thoughtless, so cruel?
When all, all that I did was for you
I break in two over you
I break in two and each piece of me dies
And only you can give the breath of life
But you don't see me, you don't
I break in two over you
I break in two and each piece of me dies
And only you can give the breath of life
But you don't see me, you don't
I break in two over you
I break in two over you, over you
I break in two
I would break in two for you
Now you see me
Now you don't
Now you need me
Now you don't
A new improved version of me
But I'm nothing so good, no, I'm nothing
Just bones, a lonely ghost burning down songs
Of violence, of love and of sorrow
I beg for just one more tomorrow
Where you hold me down, fold me in
Deep, deep, deep in the heart of your sins
I break in two over you
I break in two and each piece of me dies
And only you can give the breath of life
But you don't see me, you don't
Here I'm pinned between darkness and light
Bleached and blinded by these nights
Where I'm tossing and tortured 'til dawn
By you, visions of you then you're gone
The shock bleeds the red from my face
When I hear someone's taken my place
How could love be so thoughtless, so cruel?
When all, all that I did was for you
I break in two over you
I break in two and each piece of me dies
And only you can give the breath of life
But you don't see me, you don't
I break in two over you
I break in two and each piece of me dies
And only you can give the breath of life
But you don't see me, you don't
I break in two over you
I break in two over you, over you
I break in two
I would break in two for you
Now you see me
Now you don't
Now you need me
Now you don't
