lyrics

I am only human
And she's a heavenly girl
Bought artificial candy
To fill my empty world
Crying by my bedside
To the sound of rain
Just like the dead flowers in autumn
In time I too will bloom again
So go ahead and let me down now
Just like you always do
Too scared to see what I am now
And what I still mean to you
Cling to the arms of another
So that you feel loved
I only want to see you smiling
I hope that they're enough

Oh no time says I'll become a ghost
Haunting every thought you love the most
Summers spent hiding inside your room
Quickly time consumed
Everything too soon

I heard that you've been crying
Sorry about your loss
I wish that I could be there
Cause I too am lost
And if I get to see you
One more time before I die
Just wanted to tell you
I hope you know I tried

Oh no time says I'll become a ghost
Haunting every thought you love the most
Summers spent hiding inside your room
Slowly time consumed
Everything but you

I heard that you are happy
Lying beneath the sun
I hope that you are proud of
What I have become
