lyrics

YET THIS IS HOW THE MELODY'S SCORED.
IF THIS IS DREAMING, WAKE ME UP.

COLLECTING ALL HER EARTHLY POSSESIONS,
WHY'S IT SUCH A HELPLESS ENDEAVOR?
I WISH YOU WERE HERE BUT
WHO AM I TO IMPOSE?

POSING,
JUST LIKE PERFECT PORCELAIN.
DEAFENING,
THE SILENCE OF THE SWAN.
SINGING,
THE PARTS WERE GREATER THAN THE SUM(MON).

SO IT WAS WRITTEN ON A TOMBSTONE I WAS NEVER MEANT TO SEE.
A FALSE COERCION, SMALL INSERTION IN THE MIND THAT SAID 'TO BE.'
SO I'M SUPPOSED TO WATCH HER DIE, AND BE ALONE FOR WHAT'S TO COME?
AND YET THE MELODY WAS SCORED; THE PARTS WERE GREATER THAN THE SUM.

I'VE NEVER BEEN SO AFRAID OF SILENCE,
AS I CARRY HER BODY IN A SOAKING SHEET INTO THE,
BURNING MIDNIGHT AIR.

YET THIS IS HOW THE MELODY'S SCORED.

"YET THIS IS, HOW THE MELODY'S SCORED.
AND I HOPE YOU HEAR ME WHEN I SAY,
THAT YOU SHOULD NEVER FINISH THIS.
JUST GO HOME, IF I COULD I WOULD.
FIND ANOTHER WAY TO HELP YOU DISPOSE."

POSING, JUST LIKE PERFECT PORCELAIN,
DEAFENING, THE SILENCE OF THE SWAN.
SINGING, THE PARTS WERE GREATER THAN THE SUM(MON)

AND SO WE'VE FALLEN FOR THE THINGS THAT WE WERE TOLD WAS JUST "TO BE"
BUT IT BEGAN SO LONG AGO, WHEN SHE SET THAT DEMON FREE.
A SONG, A SLIP, A SULLEN LOSS OF MELODY,
ALL WRITTEN ON A TOMBSTONE I WAS NEVER MEANT TO SEE.
