Melting as Stone versuri

Melting as Stone lyrics by ANNAGRAM

INTRO: A BRIEF MANDOLIN SOLO

VERSE 1
She was so young
And had her head flying high across the city sky that now is fading to gray
As she watched her dreams get buried
An action that wasn’t authorized, that she wasn’t even asked about
And so in the nights she drank
She drank wanting to die, she drank to forget

VERSE 2
Far from home
Trapped in a world that now crumbles to ash
While I’m melting as stone
After having succumbed to the bows of that igneous love
And so a few glasses went, one by one, until they ended in several еmpty bottles on the floor
Constantly leading mе to ask…

Chorus
Why did I let myself be consumed by the flames of that feeling
And let it metamorphize me?
Why did I give in to the pressure of that feeling
And let it weaken me?
Why did I let myself be consumed by the flames of that feeling
When everything didn’t seem right anymore?
Why did I let myself get infected by the strenght of that feeling
When there was still a way to go back?

LONG INSTRUMENTAL BREAK WITH VOCALIZES AT THE END

OUTRO
In the nocturnal eruptions, I was breaking down
And in the daytime eruptions, the pressure on me was building
To the point that I couldn’t deny it anymore
It is such a thing that would forever mark my life
In the nocturnal eruptions, I was breaking down
And in the daytime eruptions, the pressure on me was building
And the familiar crystalline texture of my eyes
Had been replaced by the glassy dying

INSTRUMENTAL ONLY UNTIL THE END OF THE SONG
