Lanterns burn
Shade the night
With our consciousness half gone
We warm our hands
On fading embers
Borrowed smiles just passing on
The early morning lasts forever
The mortal coil is still untethered
All our timidness is severed
The orange glow turns red
Here we are
Once again
Meeting eyes across the fray
The moment past
So ephemeral
And the night just slipped away
As the sky falls down
As the sky falls down again
As the light goes out
As the light goes out again
Breathe the ash
Taste the cinders
Let our hopes and fears be known
Cold embrace
The wind returns
And we both turn back alone
As the sky falls down
As the sky falls down again
As the light goes out
As the light goes out again
The early morning lasts forever
And as the fearlessness is severed
A subtle moment shared together
The orange glow fades out
As the sky falls down
As the sky falls down again
As the light goes out
The orange glow is gone
