Portrait of Youth versuri

Portrait of Youth lyrics by Eric Lavin

INTRO
Gilded hush, midnight sigh, storm of years
Whisper, whisper
Moonlight stains my skin with silver tears
Oh, silver tears

VERSE
Fall in the glass, heart that never sleeps
Velvet masks of youth the daylight keeps
Your candle kiss my lips, shadows flood within
Every hidden piece beneath the glass, where sins begin
Begin

Chorus
My reflection, is aging old
My definition, a long lost road
My reflection, is pushing far
My definition, a long lost dream

VERSE
Mirror’s breath turns cold, smiles that never age
Laced with lace and wine, dеsire guards its cage
A silver laugh rеmains where time should leave a scar
The frame devours the light while you forget how far
How far

Chorus
My reflection, is aging old
My definition, a long lost road
My reflection, is pushing far
My definition, a long lost dream

VERSE
Glass of gold decays, eyes that never weep
Perfumed lies behind the smile you keep
Your silence burns my chest, the room forgets to breathe
Every inch untouched outside conceals the death beneath
Beneath

Chorus
My reflection, is aging old
My definition, a long lost road
My reflection, is pushing far
My definition, a long lost dream

OUTRO
Roses of fire bloom, deep in my soft skin
I taste the rust of hush-hushed crimes within
The hall applauds your flawless grace while my dream breaks
Halos whirl above your head, my demons pay the price
Pay the price
