Looking back to where it all began
Pyrrhic dreams of a lavender man
My heart was concrete, cemented in your mind
We thought we'd leave our emptiness behind
We were erosion
Shop-like convenient miscalculations
Darkness confused for adoration
I just couldn't let you run into the night
Because without you, I'd just feel... alright
We were erosion
I was then a man yearning for release
And I remained a man yearning for release
