Lyrics Headstones - WRVTH

Headstones

As time passes
Colors start to blur
Empty apologies
Forgotten goodbyes
Folded up and saved in a box
Fading to a time stained keepsake of formative years
Stowed on a shelf next to books that were never read
A canvas once washed in blood and bile
Burnt and scathed
Kept hidden in plain sight
Like scars and calluses
A reminder of a time we use to dream
When the sunrise of tomorrow felt like an unwavering promise
Now everything is old and grey
Like the headstones on the cemetery lawn
Inscribed with a quotable phrase to remember us by when we’re long gone
