Coffins Lyrics - Reflections Ep - Misterwives

I gave my hand for you to hold 

I gave my love that you went and sold 

Exchanged our song for another 

Can't blame, is that flame that once glowed like no other. 

How do you soften the thought of carrying coffins? 

We were so alive 

Only to see us wither and die. 

You say you stand even if this is our fault 

You're earning, you'll dare when you will hit the wall 

I shot your ears, tried to make you hear my call 

But you were long gone, hoping this song is done. 

How do you soften the thought of carrying coffins? 

We were so alive 

Only to see us wither and die. 

I saw your hand dry 

And I never ever thought I'd hear these words be said 

Now I lay here in an unmade bed 

Empty stomach, Sunday bowl to be fed 

Your ego swallowed and from there you fled 

So far away, could not find your way back 

Walked down the path, wet feet slip through the grass. 

Wet feet slip through the grass 

Could not find your way back 

Wet feet slip through the grass 

Could not find your way back. 

How do you soften the thought of carrying coffins? 

We were so alive 

Only to see us wither and die. 

Oh, why? I saw your hand dry.
