Lyrics

A Purgatory

Can't end, can't begin
Can't end, can't begin
The wheels keep spinning
A purgatory

Won't be your puppet
No rules or judgments
You'll master nothing
I've cut all the strings

Whispers got loud
Love turned to stone
I know, you know
We talked about eternity and always
You were the one, sun in your eyes
I go, you go
I'm running
Now we're left with nothing

No set direction
Walked with intention
A last impression
I'm still on my feet

Whispers got loud
Love turned to stone
I know, you know
We talked about eternity and always
You were the one, sun in your eyes
I go, you go
We had begun the start of nothing

Whispers got loud
Love turned to stone
I know, you know
We talked about eternity and always
You were the one, sun in your eyes
I know, you know
We had begun the start of nothing

Whispers got loud
Love turned to stone
I know, you know
We talked about eternity and always
You were the one, sun in your eyes
I go, you go
I'm running
Now we're left with nothing
