Lyrics By Ryan Lieske

Throwing out those words you gave me
Watching winds whip away your face
Leaves are blowing, there goes your smile
Alone out here watching things erase …
Branches scratching the window behind my eyes
Living dead tree at the foot of my bed
Reaching fingers that never reach my cheek
Mourning me, knowing I’m already dead …
Chorus
Away you go, on that current,
There in front of me
Screaming on its way past
All those dreams we built as one
Now our love is done…
Cold, raw stones …
Sifting, washing us away
Washing us away …
And I can hear the way you grit your teeth,
Angered at my tenacious heart
Throwing curses born on flying tears
The rain won’t end …
When did it ever start?
Calloused flesh across my trembling throat
Your nails, hungry for my voice
Digging out my silent, forlorn cries
My blood becomes the only noise …
Inside there’s no honest feeling
You were as cold as an autumn stream
Promises of a lifeless, bloodless dream
Washing us away …
