And all we knew was gone… … fell like ashes from my hands And all we knew was gone… Yes i lied, on the day we said goodbye Your love denied, harsh words to sever all ties If you spare the time, to let me speak my mind I could tell you why, I couldn’t let myself drown with you I knew i’d never be your bride, That you were forever tangled in the thorns in your mind In leaving you i left, half of me behind In flames, our hopes were scattered to the wind Your fractured mind, turned inside out over time The truth maligned, as your fear and ignorance entwined On each anniversary, your ghost grew inside of me Into something you never were, And someone you could never ever be I knew i’d never be your bride, That you were forever tangled in the thorns in your mind In leaving you i left, half of me behind In flames, our hopes were scattered to the wind I knew we’d never see another allhallowtide, And all that we knew was gone I knew i’d never be your bride, That you were forever tangled in the thorns in your mind In leaving you i left, half of me behind In flames, our hopes were scattered to the wind Oh yes i knew, i knew I knew i’d never be your bride, That you were forever tangled in the thorns in your mind In leaving you i left, half of me behind In flames, our hopes were scattered to the wind And all we knew was gone… … fell like ashes from my hand
