lyrics

I remember saying, I wanted time to end,
But it ended way too soon, much sooner than I meant,
Waiting got me nowhere, chasing made me drown,
The clock kept ticking, forever I'll burn it down,
The people I looked up on, the people who I loved,
I will look down on, from higher up than I thought,
I wish I had one moment, or just one final breath,
To tell you that I loved you, to say goodbye before I left,

I've climbed the windswept heights, With easiest grace,
To be swept away by angels, that I used to hate,
Ceased to exist to find a heaven on earth,
With easiest grace,
To be swept away,

Every line in my path has been carved into stone,
Every passing minute I kept looking for what I had,
But I never cared to realise that it wasn't really bad,
Maybe searching for something I didn't know,
Taught me to understand my own ways to go,
Forever under pressure of finding my home, sweet home,

From every memory and feeling,
The joy of night is lost,
When it turns into day,

The book is closed,
Will they remember the writer?
What's left of a frozen picture?
One without colours,

The book is closed,
Will time forget the poet?

A stain on a broken canvas,
Will time let me outgrow it?
