I watched the houses burn, a bloodstained kind of brightness

The last breath of grace and elegance is done

The dead are lugged away, but they won't find their silence

The verges fade, another time has begun



A better time will come they say to reassure themselves

Another day will bring the light - but they are ignorant

In the cradle of their carelessness

Burning flesh, burning skin

Another raindrop burns their loathsome eyes.



The diaries are blank, they went too far

They can't return to their desolated homes

No life anymore in the rooms of the girl who lived next door

Desolated home



I watched the houses burn, the trees were full of ashes

Just like snowflakes darken the sky

No better time will come they know

The truth becomes certainty

They won't see the sun, they won't feel the light - no more



The loss of insincerity

The loss of humand souls



The diaries are blank, they went too far

They can't return to their desolated homes

No life anymore in the rooms of the girl who lived next door

Desolated home
