Death Masks

Outlive your youth and you'll old
Ashes in the wind
In every story fully told
Heroes die at the end
Our bones were made of glass
We were never meant to last
Our bones were made of glass
We were never meant to last

We fashion death masks of friends and idols
Silver faces miscast
Imperfect memories of fallen heroes
Shine much brighter in death
We fashion death masks of friends and idols
That never look quite right
Fallen heroes shine much brighter
In death than they did in life

Some truths are better left unlearned
Ashes on the lake
Our youth died the day we learned
Our heroes all were fakes
Our bones were made of glass
We were never meant to last
Our bones were made of glass
We were never meant to last

We fashion death masks of friends and idols
Silver faces miscast
Imperfect memories of fallen heroes
Shine much brighter in death
We fashion death masks of friends and idols
That never look quite right
Fallen heroes shine much brighter
In death than they did in life

We were never meant to last

We fashion death masks of friends and idols
Silver faces miscast
Imperfect memories of fallen heroes
Shine much brighter in death
We fashion death masks of friends and idols
That never look quite right
Fallen heroes shine much brighter
In death than they did in life
