THE VOID OF HEAVEN

I remember the impending doom of dusk
As you gazed into my eyes one last time
And I embraced your shivering hands in mine
Shed a tear every night when that dream turns to dust

there's nothing in heaven
when you are still in my heart
no angels in heaven
i can't stand for us to part

NO

I wish I could say I tried to let you go
I would be lying to myself again
The past holds me captive so I can't begin
To heal in this chrysalis of deep shadows

NO

There's nothing in Heaven
When you are still in my heart
No angels in Heaven
I can't stand for us to part

BURN IT DOWN AND DRIFT AMONG THE EMBERS
THE MASQUE IS FAILING IN MOURNING DISGUISE
BURN IT DOWN AND DRIFT AMONG THE EMBERS
OUR ASHES ARE TOGETHER IN NIGHT SKIES

I am fighting my demons with tooth and nail
But it is just a one sided slaughter
I'm torn asunder across troubled waters
Suffering without you in my own fucking Hell

burn it down and drift among the embers
the masque is failing in mourning disguise
burn it down and drift among the embers
our ashes are together in night skies

there's nothing in heaven
when you are still in my heart
no angels in heaven
i can't stand for us to part

The silence, the silence
Is so deafening

Burn it down and drift among the embers
WHEN THERE'S NOTHING IN HEAVEN
The masque is failing in mourning disguise
YOU STILL IN MY HEART
Burn it down and drift among the embers
THERE'S NO ANGELS IN HEAVEN
Our ashes are together in night skies
I CANNOT STAND FOR US TO PART
