Lyrics
Gone Miles Cassie: As the fog fills his eyes She remembers simpler times His shirt was glowing red Slowly dancing towards the bed Suddenly she became alone And the silence never goes As the dust set on the floor She feels the weight once more She tears right through the door I’ll never come back here All I can taste are tears And I run down the street Wishing the wind would let me free Sid: As the fog fills my mind Another taken from my life They won’t let us say goodbye So we’ll show them what it’s like What it’s like to be alone With the silence overgrown Jal: As the tears fill my eyes Finally see into his mind His love ripped the world apart And showed us who we are Chris: As I watch my body go I see I never was alone My family took me home With the fireworks below My brothers simple smile Him and I, we have gone miles And right before I reach the top I scream ‘Fuck it!’ and I jump As I fall through the breeze Remembering all my years My friend’s breath my last smile And here the wind, it sets me free.
