Lirieke: From Autumn to Ashes. Short stories with tragic endings.

Here you stand seething with guilt
Silence only justifies this act of cowardice
Look the stapled on your face cries out for forgiveness
The one thing that I cannot give

Did you ever see that one person
And the way they do these things?
And it hurts you so much
It's like choking, choking

I can give you freedom from your guilt
With a flick of my wrist onto yours
I can give you peace of mind with a forced smile
I can give you death with the look upon my face

This is your freedom in a life of fallacy
With no last kiss and no regrets, you don't deserve goodbye
This is your freedom in a life of fallacy
With no last kiss and no good bye

Here you stand seething with guilt
Silence only justifies this act of cowardice

With a short story, the one you add to daily, you are the tragic loss
No story book ending for this fairy tale of you
Just the one composed with blood taken from your head
That you hold in your lifeless hand

Cry for you, shed tears, mourn, wish the end
Cry for you, shed tears, mourn, wish the end
Mourn, wish the end, mourn, wish the end
Mourn, wish the end

Did you ever look? Did you ever see that one person
And the subtle way that they do these things?
And it hurts so much
So much like choking down the embers of a great blaze

It's a moment when your eyes seem to spread aspersions
And to scream confessions at the insipid sky parting clouds
You let this one person come down in most perfect moment
And it breaks my heart to know the only reason, you are here now
Is a reminder of what I'll never have, I'll never have, I'll never

Standing so close knowing that it kills me to breathe you in
Standing so close knowing that it kills me to breathe you in
But this table for one has become bearable
I now take comfort in this, and for this, I cherish you

Did you ever look? Did you ever see that one person
And the subtle way that they do these things?
And it hurts so much
So much like choking down the embers of a great blaze

It's that moment when your eyes seem to spread aspersions
And to scream confessions at the insipid sky parting clouds
You let this one person come down, come down
I cherish you, I cherish you

Just say you would do the same for me
Just say you would do the same for me
Just say you would do the same
Just say you would do the same for me
For as much as I love Autumn, I'm giving myself to Ashes
