lyrics

My dream last night was a vivid one
You were floating on a lake
A knife went through your throat
The blood got lost among the waters
As the knife started to cut

You desperately tried to fight
But when you realized your fate was sealed
You gave up, faded away, a glance to say goodbye
---
I knew it was time to quit, when I saw you bleed to death
I knew that I couldn't stay, when I saw your life fade away
I knew it was time to quit, when I felt the death of a loved one
I knew that I couldn't stay, because something died inside of me (too)
---
The lakeside was so beautiful
Beautiful as your smile
As beautiful as your eyes
And I cried and I tried and I cried
And I cried and I tried and I cried
Until I wish I wouldn't have to say goodbye

And I grieved while your body started to sink
I suffered the departing of your smile
I mourned while you were closing your eyes
I realized how hard I tried

And when I was invaded by sorrow
And felt there was no tomorrow
I realized with the deepest horror
That there was one to blame
And I stared at the knife
I couldn't believe my eyes
I was the one to be blame
---
I knew it was time to quit, when I saw you bleed to death
I knew that I couldn't stay, when I saw your life fade away
I knew it was time to quit, when I felt the death of a loved one
I knew that I had to run, because it was me handling the knife!
