Entombed
Cold and left leaden, beside you
Bound by vows not to leave you alone
Set my whole world afire just to save you
but you can't warm a heart made of stone
Now we're stuck in these ruins
In the darkness, where nothing can bloom
The ashes and tears, acrimonious years
under pressure...constructed our tomb
