SAMSARA from HERE LIES by Kill Scenes

i miss the part of you that burned
the photo in the frame
the face that had a name
we spill the ashes from the urn
returning from the flame
but you don't look the same

i'd travel outside of this world
i'd leave it in the past
to be with you at last
i'd break the lock off of the door
and take the stars to task
and i'd never look back
if i could hear you laugh again

but i'm walking with the fire
still holding on to grief
still chained to desire

there's no escape
samsara, samsara
the echo and the ache
at every turn i take, i see you
the endless shape
samsara, samsara
my scream can only shake
the circle i can't break to find you

i need the summer of your flesh
for where will these arms rest
when only bones are left?
to feel the moment that is blessed
but always mourn the next
a sorrow we expect

the sweetness of your spoken word
if it should not be heard
it all becomes absurd
all the boarders start to blur
the light of your allure
makes me so unsure
that i'll ever be cured of want

there's no relief
still walking with desire
still clinging to the grief

there's no escape
samsara, samsara
the echo and the ache
at every turn i take, i see you
the endless shape
samsara, samsara
my scream can only shake
the circle i can't break to find you

no escape
my scream can only shake
the circle i can't break
