Despised Icon - A Fractured Hand lyrics

I remember that brief moment when I
I shouted "end this day"
Mistakes and lessons have since gone my way

The same regrets lie noiselessly for now
Within these poor isolated walls
Something this sacred should not have
Been taken for granted
My vow of secrecy must be kept
Something this sacred should not
Have faded with time

I've failed you once again yet
You still hold my hand
I've failed you once again yet
You still hold my hand
I've failed you once again yet
You still hold my hand
I've failed you once again
I desperately dig within to recover that
Sweet innocence that shined upon us


I loathe myself for every time I
Was moved by someone else's loveliness
All those precious moments we
Have shared have
Been violated by temptation's venomous kiss

If only I could look at
You again with the same
Eyes that once cherished every
Single step you took

My heart aches whenever I think of that night
You fervently whispered "je ne
Te connais plus"
This is the end of something beautiful
