Lyrics

In the middle of the south they dug a hole
To fill with all the silent moments that we lost
They say that once a broken human, forever a hollow shell of abandoned dreams

Don’t try to entertain us with false hope
If only we’d just severed what been lost
They say once a broken human, forever a hollow shell of abandoned dreams

They said one for all but it was all for one
Still there’s nothing to regret (It’s time)
Time slips through your fingers
Like water mixed with wine, let’s make a mess
(Wake up what you never had)
To love all your mistakes is nothing short of what we learn to call divine
But if I miss the shadow of the love we created it’s alright with me

In the middle of the south we dug a hole
To fill with all silent moments we had lost
They say once a broken human, forever a hollow shell of abandoned dreams
They say once a broken human, forever a hollow shell of abandoned dreams
They say once a broken human, forever a hollow shell of abandoned dreams
