Lyrics

Time is written on your face

Time has left its marks and signs on your face, showing the passage of time.

And the cold white arms of memory embrace you

The memories, often associated with coldness, surround and hold onto you.

Love is all we lay to waste

Love is squandered and not appreciated properly.

Now it's only lips of

Now, it's only the kisses or touches of loneliness that reach and affect you.

Loneliness that taste you

Loneliness dominates and affects your sense of taste.

Oh god you were beautiful

Oh god you were beautiful oh god

(Special delivery from mad Shelley) what

Reflection on what someone else could say in a situation, possibly indicating uncertainty or contemplation.

Could anybody say

Acknowledgment that certain events were predictable only in hindsight.

Except in hindsight this was bound to happen

When two souls collide, it was an inevitable outcome, something that was bound to happen.

When two souls collide this way

When two souls come together in this manner, there's no predefined direction or map for their interaction.

There's no compartment they can find a map in
