I gave my hand for you to hold 
I gave my love that you went and sold 
Exchanged our song for another 
Can't blame, is that flame that once glowed like no other. 
How do you soften the thought of carrying coffins? 
We were so alive 
Only to see us wither and die. 
You say you stand even if this is our fault 
You're earning, you'll dare when you will hit the wall 
I shot your ears, tried to make you hear my call 
But you were long gone, hoping this song is done. 
How do you soften the thought of carrying coffins? 
We were so alive 
Only to see us wither and die. 
I saw your hand dry 
And I never ever thought I'd hear these words be said 
Now I lay here in an unmade bed 
Empty stomach, Sunday bowl to be fed 
Your ego swallowed and from there you fled 
So far away, could not find your way back 
Walked down the path, wet feed slip through the grass. 
Wet feet slip through the grass 
Could not find your way back 
Wet feet slip through the grass 
Could not find your way back. 
How do you soften the thought of carrying coffins? 
We were so alive 
Only to see us wither and die. 
Oh, why? I saw your hand dry.
