Holding
Kneeling
Breathing
Out and in

Holy wind
Won't let you in
Sallow skin
Led astray

And now it's broken again
Don't know where it began
Don't know where
Don't know when

Anything on earth that hurts like this
Should be locked away and never kissed
'Cause beneath this fallen empire
I'm left with just the taste of her
I'm left with just the taste of her

Fading
Reeling
Falling
Into sin

And now its aching again
Don't know where to begin
From the shallows
To the grave

Anything on earth that hurts like this
Should be locked away and never kissed
'Cause beneath this fallen empire
I'm left with just the taste of her
I'm left with just the taste of her
What a think it is to kill a dream
Stone cold dead and never seen
And behind this faded effigy
I hope you still have the taste of me
Hope you still have the taste of me
