Life in Monochrome

from Life in Monochrome by Electra Descending

lyrics

On this pale February morning I wake alone
I long for your embrace and for your warmth
In the stillness of the night I can still feel you there
My dreams are wrought with you

Expectations are shattered
and dreams are broken
The future I envisioned
Will never come to fruition
You're not here to color my life
A tradeoff for all the grief and strife
You're not here to bring me down
Or to embrace me

I passed the event horizon
The gravity pulled me in
The attraction was just too strong
So I gave in
I couldn't resist
The promises that you made
no I couldn't resist
The hell you put me through

Part of me still has this misbegotten hope
That you'll come back and be so different
You're not here to fuck up my life
You're not here to bring me stress or strife
You're not here to bring me down
Life in monochrome

The colors of our love may be dead and gone
But it leaves me with some hope
That I'll find something so much brighter
Embraced by those lovely tones
