Manere Aurum

She fills my eyes like she was made of gold
And oh yes she glitters and she glows
There’s nothing that I regret
Don’t want to give into bitter envy

I would rather forget
Don’t want to relive it, don’t want to relive it
She clings to purity so she can cast her stones
I withdraw but I know she’s never alone

If these sheets could talk, they would not stop
Saying that they miss her, my blood feels thicker
Don’t leave me alone
Once upon my mattress, we became a classic

We burned hot like matches and outran the panic
Once upon her sadness, we became so tragic
We burned out like matches and only spoke in static
If these sheets could talk, they would not stop

Saying that they miss her, my blood feels thicker
Don’t leave me alone
She’s burning the bridge that leads her home
She’s running away, she’s leaving me alone
