longing ~

* chorus *
 
I'm longing...
This longing...Secretly...
Silently...
Scratches at my heart
 
I'm longing...
This longing...
Secretly...
Silently...
Scratches at my heart
 
drown me in the river
Lethe.

I’ll let you go,
let you go, let you go
as i vanish into foggy mists
we both know you
wouldn't be filled with
any regrets, no sadness
 
a calligraphy of tears
written on my face
oh how you enjoyed
their taste, alone I'm
filled with disgrace
after all these years,
kill my heart's illusion
 
*chorus*
 
I'm longing...
This longing...Secretly...
Silently...
Scratches at my heart…
 
I'm longing...
Secretly...
Silently...
Scratches at my heart
 
now filled with no choice
no more trust
entranced by your voice
I'll make sure to break
that spell
 
My love you already
dismissed, so...
my will...
I surrender to this
empty, shadowy abyss
 
I admit, I enjoyed the pain
 
I'm out in the cold
And i lost my home
You left me with a hole...
A hole upon my bleeding soul
 
*bridge*
 
So now I've chosen this road
An endless road of loneliness
To walk
 
i'll let you go,
let you go, let you go
as i vanish into foggy mists
we both know you
wouldn't be filled with
any regrets, no sadness
 
*chorus*
 
I'm longing...
This longing...Secretly...
Silently...
Scratches at my heart
 
drown me in the river
Lethe
 
My love for you...
was always stronger...
 
(You were just  a foolish mistake...
I'll no longer embrace)...


Even from the start.
