a memory misread
counterparts
don't adorn me like the dead
i deserve to look like myself once again
suspended from the sky like ornaments
i am a farewell that even heaven won't accept
collecting scars like souvenirs of pasts we can't forget
swept over the bodies i know best
i am a farewell that even heaven won't accept
separate me from a finished product like needle and thread
translating words to portray the vacant pages they live in
a requiem worshipped for the pauses it contains
praising not the essence but the meaningless remain
collecting shards from mirror images of me
i am no idol for the weak
collecting shards from mirror images of me
i am no idol for the weak
i am a farewell that even heaven won't accept
i am a farewell that even heaven won't accept
collecting scars like souvenirs of pasts we can't forget
swept over the bodies i know best
i am a farewell that heaven won't accept
