"Undo You" lyrics - KATATONIA

At life's four-way stop, the tinge in your shadow drops
Fate pulls you down for the count
With broken promises to amount
Time, seal our ways to the heart of our hiding place
When all our lifelines have been crossed
Some scars can never heal from what we lost

[Chorus:]
To fail the test and depart the strong
Is to light the way where you have gone
For only our funerals to come
A requiem in death, a song

And it seems to be that consistency
Is not what lingers ahead
But a virtue of the dead
One of these days, hours pass yet the night stays
When your spirit won't turn anew
The world shuts down with no goodbye to undo you

[Bridge:]
Breathing, lifeless
We are not afraid to die
Breathe in, life's less
You're afraid not to live

[Chorus:]
To fail the test and depart the strong
Is to light the way where you have gone
For only our funerals to come
A requiem in death, a song
