Graphite Songtext / Lyric

Just like a rose I need to be cherished

Just like a child I'll suffer if you vanish

There's no tear in my eye, I'll listen if I must

The tale of my life is turning to dust



Nothing you say could ever hurt my pride

I know that you love her, and this is a goodbye

There's no tear in my eye, I'll understand if I must

Now everything's over, now hope's fading into the dusk






The graphite around me solidifies

And gives an end to this tale

Too weak to fight it, I feel I'm giving in

And graphite prevails



In a frigid silence my heart still beats strong

You asked to forgive for all the things done wrong

There's no tear in my eye, but there's nothing inside

There's no new tale to tell; I can only tell tales of life



You talked, you talked, I couldn't make the words out

As if something was wrapped around me

I saw the sun of this world of mine flicker out

I felt the pall around my body



The graphite around me solidifies

And gives an end to this tale

Too weak to fight it, I feel I'm giving in

And graphite prevails
