Sweet memories stained in gold dust
Lies like whispers in the midnight air
Intense past feels like a cold gust
Broken history we never could repair
In my heart where shadows play
Faded echoes of what used to be
Night and day they warp and sway
Untold stories buried deep in me
Sweet memories and bitter lies
Locked away behind my eyes
Where love once bloomed and then it died
A tangled web we tried to hide
Footprints in the sands of time
Trace the smiles and trace the pain
Every laugh and every crime
Left us wandering through the rain
Eyes closed I see it clear
A world that crumbled at our feet
Emotions raw and tinged with fear
In the end defeat tasted sweet
Sweet memories and bitter lies
Locked away behind my eyes
Where love once bloomed and then it died
A tangled web we tried to hide
