Curse Me with Your Kiss - Holding Absence

When I get to the pearly gates

I know there’ll be no shame

In reaching out to you

And hoping that you call my name

Someday I’m gonna let you know

I tried my best to hide your ghost

In the floorboards down below

I’m blackened by your shadow

Even back when it all began

I knew there was more to this

I felt fire inside before

But no one else could tame it

I doubt I’ll ever find the peace inside

But what about the pieces that I left behind?

I dream of you

In colours that don’t exist

Looking back on my life, all I know is this

I let you curse me with your kiss

When I get to the pearly gates

Let it feel like yesterday

I’m reaching out to you

I hope you do the same

I remember the crack in your voice

When you said, «I'm leaving»

Just another lover that left me

With nothing to believe in

I doubt I’ll ever find the peace inside

But what about the pieces that I’ve left?

I dream of you

In colours that don’t exist

Looking back on my life, all I know is this

I let you curse me with your kiss

Well, I lost myself inside your echo

And now I live my life with nothing left to let go

And now there’s nowhere left for me to turn back

I know that, I know

Well, I lost myself inside your echo

And now I live my life with nothing left to let go

And now there’s nowhere left for me to turn back

I know that

You’ll never truly know, you’ll never truly know

You’ll never truly know

How I miss you so

(Well, I lost myself inside your echo

And now I live my life with nothing left to let go)

Light of my life

(And now there’s nowhere left for me to turn back

I know that, I know)

How I miss you so

Light of my life

How I miss you so

Light of my life

How I miss you so

Light of my life

How I miss you so

Light of my life
