Текст Rolo Tomassi – Contretemps
Текст:
A hidden depth to burden endlessly
Golden memories and sainthood
And the following fall through
For a certain certainty
There’s a weight that rests here
And underneath innocence
Rising up, raised to confront
Imperfections shining through
Where I wanted to hold you
It’s defective, let us leave it
In perished walls and ceilings
Uncompromising
Torn and crushed
So cold but pure
So long
Granted, I’m plagued
Left untreated and empty
Demanding breath and being
Carved always and binding
These ordered occasions, a flowing entity
Is drifting back to me
Locked in a farewell with what I’ve caused
With what I forced
These similarities, boundless in their might
Weathered with dismay, the irreversible and eternal
Overthrown, those sins do not pardon your own
Woven into veins
No binding can fray
It’s pressed into these bones
Links along a chain
It’s pressed into these bones
