With Autumn I'll Surrender

As autumn sets fire to days
We can no longer hold on
We are burning in water
Steadily drowning in flames
While in my dreams we're still roaming
Through these fields together
In my dreams it's still young love
Yearning for forever

Like the last days of a suicide kid
Borrowing happiness from tomorrow
Still and always craving for summer
But for a summer so many years ago

Those who got outcast from their hometown
Will burn it down to roughly feel its warmth
Like a fire-theft in times of peace
Now break my heart and take your piece

...oh what a flammable heart I've been given

Sometimes the people around you won't understand your journey
And fuck, that's just fine, cause it was never meant for them
Cause the eyes, useless when the mind is blind
And by the time we learn to live, it may already be too late

Maybe you think that I got thorns on my tongue
Cause of the words that I said or the way I spoke
But my heart was just growing roses
My heart was always searching for a place in the sun

Cause some days I'm the "Starry Night"
Then other days I'm the suicide letter
And I keep on craving for summer
But for a summer many years ago
And so I became who I always hated
And my life, worth one more tragedy
And so I destroyed everything
And turned my back on the world

...blame it on my wild heart

It's a walk among tombstones
Everyone I loved left or died
Death still conducts, still sings our songs
And this poem of life ended with a scream
