about

Probably the most depressing of the EP, this track reflects upon life, getting old, and watching other people fade away.

lyrics

Your pale white hair flows gently round your face
there is no item you haven’t misplaced
Your wrinkled skin is peaceful now,
the spark in your eyes has gone out
and now you’re only skin and bones

Your glasses have been left beside your bed
I still can’t accept the fact that you’re dead
My memories of you are here
I wipe away a single tear
‘cause now you’re only skin and bones

It smells of you, it’s like you’re still around
not like you’re rotting deep under the ground
I must accept my fate or else I’ll never learn to love myself
We’re all becoming skin and bones

My memory is fading now, my time’s rapidly running out
and soon I will become skin and bones
