Petrichor by Sulphur

I saw the end, the fall, the weight of it all

Trapped inside life's invisible walls

I wait for her to make me believe

If she can't then there's nothing I need

I tried so hard to make amends

To behave as if nothing would end

The things we love, the things we destroy

As we claw our way out of the void

I need that umbilical silence

To cut through this veil of doubt

It enters me tender and violent now

Is this the end of dreams

Or just the truth I need?

Now the light is bleeding into my head

She's alive and needing me

somewhere else

What will remain the day she goes

where I can't follow her?

There is no promise to dim our sights

Not as we enter this bleeding light

I saw it breach the sky, a gateway of fire

And the vapor of each tear we cried

Dissolved in air, she's taking me there

'Cause the night is ours to conquer and share

I need that umbilical silence

To cut through this veil of doubt

It enters me tender and violent now

Is this the end of dreams

Or just the truth I need?

Now the light is bleeding into my head

She's alive and needing me

somewhere else

What will remain the day she goes

where I can't follow her?

There is no promise to dim our sights

Not as we enter this bleeding light

Now the light is seeping in through

tracks of wasted time

A last reminder of those moments

when the world was mine

Like sulphur rains

And mornings after

Like growing pains

They fade away

Like every time

They made you suffer

I will return

Now the light is bleeding into my head

She's alive and needing me

somewhere else

What will remain the day she goes

where I can't follow her?

There is no promise to dim our sights

No turning back 'cause tonight we Ride

There is no way we can close our eyes

Not as we enter this bleeding light
