lyrics

"She still calls to me in the afterglow,
fights to slow her heart rate,
even though it's past midnight,
I'm only part awake.
She begs to hear a verdict
in terms of her endearment,
but I can only speak for myself.

She says I'm from the Earth,
born from grime and dirt,
but who am I to you now?
I promised to see this through,
and I swore that I'd remain true until the end.

She's calling my name.
She's calling my name.
She's calling my name,
but I don't know my name.

I wanna be your love,
your constant fire,
until our last embrace.
Now, teach me how to speak
in the tongue of these,
as we fall from humanity.

Can't you see what's going on?
Can't you see what's going on?

I don't wanna be locked down
in another bedroom.

Can't you see what's going on?
Can't you see what's going on?

Part of the solution was never found.
Don't be waiting on me 'case I won't be coming around.
Even though I"m still chained to the ground,
I know that part of the solution was never found.
And she said,
'I'm not coming home,
but now that I'm gone,
I feel like I'm.......
Lost.'

If you can muster the faith,
that we're coming home one day,
we might be okay.
We might be okay.
If you can stay brave,
I promise to stay safe,
and I'll be okay,
I'll be okay.

'Whisper my name, whisper my name,
in the heat of the breaking day.'
I will remain, yet my feelings the same,
but I'm not coming home anyway.
She said...
She said...
She said...
She said...
'This is rebirth.'
Rebirth.
Rebirth.
Rebirth.....

And though our hearts my break,
our memories will stay the same,
and our language the same.
And when I reach the age
that the memories will fade,
I hope I die while I'm part awake..."
