Milk and Madness

Prelude

Sigh of the wind as the curtain falls

Steps in silence echo through the hall

Strings growing tense in a velvet night

Hopes are fragile under candlelight

Verse 1 - Female Vocal, Group harmonies

Cold dawn whispers a secret past

Promises lost never meant to last

Hands once gentle drift apart in fear

Dreams unravel as truth draws near

Chorus

Rivers drown the promises will be broken

Memories bite, never to be spoken

Echoes of mistakes fall under my skin

The day leaves,let the dawn begin

Pre-Chorus

ah, whoa, ah, whoa ohhhh

ah, whoa, ah, whoa ohhhh

Verse 2 - Male Vocal, Group harmonies

Moonlight cold on the trembling road

Ashes fall where we once would lay

Words unspoken, the truth I owed

Shadows grow, I watch you fade away

Pre-Chorus - Operatic and Death growl duet

Gone away with the bitter rain

Sorrow flows deeper than the sea

Regret in my heart, cry again

Left with the pain, nobody but me

Chorus

Rivers drown the promises will be broken

Memories bite, never to be spoken

Echoes of mistakes fall under my skin

The day leaves,let the dawn begin

Post-Chorus

Shadows lean close, nobody knows

Longing for peace, but the door is closed

Sins on my back like endless snow

Craving forgiveness I never show

Bridge - Female Vocal, Group harmonies

Torn pages scattered, dreams on the floor

Wounds still bleed behind every door

Hold me now as the darkness breaks

Light through the cracks, a future remakes

Guitar solo

Outro - Female Vocal, Group harmonies

Silent as snow, we lay burdens down

Threads of the sorrow sewn to our gowns

Breath in the stillness, night nearly done

Gone are the ghosts, the healing has begun

Final refrain through the trembling air

Truth in the quiet, peace in despair

Daybreak will find us, hearts softly mend

Closing the story, past finds its end
