Daniel Tompkins - Stains of Betrayal Lyrics

I fall away in fields of light
And castaway yesterday's fight
A tempting calling of night I blame
But never walking towards the flame

My fire still burns but was it ever really gone?
We are fighting: all or nothing
Years of waiting

My fire still burns but was it ever really gone?
My fire still burns but was it ever really gone?

Touching you was easy
A breath we pray to reach the skies
The penalties of drifting
Wash away beneath your eyes
The chaos spinning faster
And a question never answered
Of why the life we calculate fails
The stinking stain of betrayal
And the sin I've never cradled
For now a simple man will unveil

My fire still burns but was it ever really gone?
My fire still burns but was it ever really gone?
My fire still burns but was it ever really gone?

EMPTY VOWS

After all the fighting ended, we never knew
If this is all that ever was coming to
The steps between us trace a circle: it never ends
We slip inside, it's so familiar: we fall again
Desperate and tired, believing every lie
We stumbled through the days but loving anyway

If we survive through suffering our lives
I'll never walk away and I'll shelter you today

Separated, now we wait on promises
But empty is our vow to make it to the end
Desperate and tired, believing every lie
We stumbled through the days but loving anyway

If we survive through suffering our lives
I'll never walk away and I'll shelter you today

If we survive through suffering our lives
I'll never walk away and I'll shelter you today
If we survive through suffering our lives
I'll never walk away and I'll shelter you today
