Sound Of Every Promise by Craw (band) Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1994

She looked it in the eye
I've got an empty
I don't have any more dreams
I wrote a letter
Then I buried it
Everything's exposed in the dark
Empty closet, empty shelves
No waking moment has ever touched this
I need a fear all my own
Widening the cracks that run through my wall
Nothing left to touch save the grains on the sill
I can't fill the closet
I can't fill the shelves
Just want to taste your presencе
An empty vial, a hand-made book, velvеt shoes
(Breathe, breathe)
The healing touch fades
I've got an empty
I've got an empty
Nothing survives the cracked shell of time
Time
Opened my eyes to no name and white memory
Her voice the voice of heroines in my sleep
I couldn't tell where the stories left off
And my dreams began
(Time, time, time)
As I closed my fingers the world I touched turned to sand
She glimmered like the ice, floating away from me, on the water
Deathless, the hard white of that scar

Woke to the black roar of trains passing through blurred towns
(Breathe, breathe, why won't you breathe?
Breathe, breathe)

Through the camera before the roar
Right before the stick hit
She looked across the crowd
And she told him that she loved him
The blow shattered her skull
I don't miss the past anymore
And the music was gone
