lyrics

When the flame goes out
& the candle burns into the sand
the smoke rises
it’s still warm but you’re not there anymore
I’m afraid & there’s such shame in my heart;
7 years it was a long time
One down-
Two to go

To my old friends
Carpenters & technicians,
Mechanics, botanical demolition crew
I been around sometime
But I never met anyone like you
When the church goes dark & the ghosts come out
I’ll be there too
Meet you on the old line,
I know you know-
This one’s getting low

In the final scene
It was sunset & new years eve
But you know I don’t believe in those things
I don’t mean that;
I never have been good at explaining,
fighting,
singing,
or being in love
Never did see a star falling that way
How could you say the things you say to me, babe?
Never did see the colors start to fade
Tho after all it’s just an altar I made
Just candles and sand and smoke rising
It’s still warm but yr not there anymore
It’s still warm but yr not there
It’s still warm but yr not
