Summer

Summer is now gone As rusted leaves begin to fall Another brand new day Is painted in a shade of gray So throw the roses in the rain As the branches scream your name Fall corrodes our kingdom come And silences our marching drum The heir of this empty plain Bruised and broken yet again Lonely I must take my throne And wear this crown of lies alone I still see you every night I still feel you every night Summer is now dust As all those memories slowly rust Another brand new dawn Is darker than the former one The forest answers when I shout Leaves me gazing in the doubt What's to come and what's to be Of the empty words you served to me All the things idealized Waking up I realized In my emptiness you were Everything that I held dear I still see you every night I still feel you every night One by one Stone by stone Break me gently Bone by bone I still see you every night I still feel you every night I still see you every night I still need you I aim so high I'm sure to fall From the shoulder that once felt so warm And as I search for you to blame I only find myself again The wind that's tainted by your name Gently dances 'round my shame Now Summer is forever gone And there won't be another one
