Candle on My Grave

Every romance has an end
Just an empty shell to bury and with dust to blend
A quiet home to rest
Rest in peace is what they said, what is to manifest
Now my narrow cage they screw
I had to leave you behind, so I just grieve for you
This way I walk for my own
I just wish you stand above so that I'm not alone

Be the candle on my grave
Make sure that I am safe
There is no more to weep
Be the candle on my grave
Make sure that I am safe
Protect me when I sleep

Your tears drop to the ground
Floating through the earth and seep into my open wound
So I feel you are still there
I can't see you but I know you are still taking care
There was no last embrace
No farewell and not a second for a final wave
But my thoughts are with you
One day you'll follow, when I wish the best for all the things you do

Be the candle on my grave
Make sure that I am safe
There is no more to weep
Be the candle on my grave
Make sure that I am safe
Protect me when I sleep

Be the candle on my grave
Make sure that I am safe
There is no more to weep
Be the candle on my grave
Make sure that I am safe
Protect me when I sleep
