Memento Mori Songtext
von Embrace the End

Lost in the swarm deteriorating with the best of them
With the best of them
But every sweet breath breathes the question
Will you be too cold to hold my hand?
Or will you just let go?

I know when you say forever
It′s like broken glass on your velvet voice

Tear a hole in forever and die in your arms
And die in your arms

So I invite you to walk the fire
Burn your beautiful fingers
Pierce this delicate skin
Arms tied behind your back

Torch this fucking town
Burn every memory, burn it down
And let the ashes dry your tears
Torch this fucking town
Burn every memory, burn it down
And let the ashes dry your tears


Redemption
Ignite this wretched monument
With unwavering stride
We will leave it all behind in a beacon of flames

If for one precious moment I could rest my tired eyes on you
In this bellicose world my eyes are blurred and you're all I see
If for one precious moment I could rest my tired eyes on you
In this bellicose world my eyes are blurred and you′re all I see

The years have worn our hearts callous
Standing before you impoverished
All I am

For you I would seize the knife
Lay down this white cloth and offer my veins
Distill the life in me
But still every dying gasp
But still every dying gasp breathes the question
Breathes the question

Will you be too cold to hold my hand?
Will you just let go?


I know when you say forever
It's like broken glass on your velvet voice
A cold dead center
The stale air infects our lungs
And I find myself drawn to the flames of your last irresistible blaze

Signs that as long as I'm breathing I′m yours
Signs that as long as I′m breathing I'm yours
Diseased by imperfection, my hope
