Like A Comet I Will Collapse Into Earth

from Counterfeit Highs (2​-​Track Single) by When at Night

/

about

This crushingly melancholic track that deals with the abuse of one of our deepest emotions: trust. Its breach unleashes a veil of negativity collapsing like a comet unto familiar ground.

lyrics

A thought of severance days
Is a fleet vertigo
Homeless and heavy
Bleak frost heralds
The sign of winter

Seize the shadows of sundials
Frost is set upon the meadows

When this fidelity ends
Like a comet I will collapse into earth
If we'll fall tonight
Away from the curtain of the stars

Frightened in all the ways I act
Lost in all the guilt I caused
Frightened what I see within
Fatal ways

Solitude fills these days
And will remain
For a long timelessness
While the cold is lurking

Frightened to feeble thoughts avail
Indolent emotions bear no lead
Frightened absence
Hold your tightened grip

Seize the shadows of sundials
Frost is set upon the meadows

When this fidelity ends
Like a comet I will collapse into earth
If we'll fall tonight
Away from the curtain of the stars

Way with a fallen heart
Remember my words
Wintertime as the fallen stars
Dreaming about days lost
Way with a fallen heart
Remember my words
Wintertime as the fallen stars
Dreaming about days lost

Solitude fills these days
And will remain
For a long timelessness
While the cold is lurking
So bland in the shadows where
Lost in what I see within
A thousand fatal shattered thrones

And when the pillars cracked
It was a broken pact
Look at the other ones
They fear it too

When this fidelity ends
Like a comet I will collapse into earth
If we'll fall tonight
Away from the curtain of the stars
