A Closer End lyrics

As in the life of rain

You're only alive when you're falling

The coldest chill

In the emptiness of reason

You brought it upon yourself

It's slow but final

With nothing to gain

You brought it upon yourself

It's slow but final

It begins today

So light up the days

With the darkest of waking dreams

For endless puzzles

To reflect our aim

You brought it upon yourself

It's slow but final

With nothing to gain

You brought it upon yourself

It's slow but final

It starts today

It seems you've passed the mark

Of indescribable dark

I fear you've drowned

In hope of what you think will come

Extracted from the sharpest of moments

Built to greet you when the time will come

Empty spaces on foundations of denial

Your structure is dust

As in the death of dream

Awakenings will leave you stranded

Where no one is listening

Where no one is around

You brought it upon yourself

It's slow but final

With nothing to gain

You brought it upon yourself

It's slow but final

It begins today
