Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Soft,

solitary

piano

chords

echo

in

a

wide,

empty

space) (

A

slow,

aching

cello

enters,

drawing

a

long,

mournful

note)

You

walked

in

like

a

sunrise

in

the

middle

of

a

winter

storm

Tracing

outlines

of

a

silhouette

that

kept

the

shadows

warm

I

memorized

the

rhythm

of

the

way

you

held

your

head

And

hung

onto

every

hollow

word

that

you

never

really

said

I

built

a

cathedral

from

the

fragments

of

your

porcelain

smile

Walking

through

the

fire

just

to

stay

with

you

a

little

while

But

the

stained

glass

is

cracking,

and

the

light

is

turning

gray

And

all

the

beauty

I

admired

is

slowly

drifting

away.

Oh,

you

were

the

masterpiece

carved

out

of

ghost

and

light

A

hauntingly

perfect

vision

in

the

dead

of

the

night

But

the

frame

is

empty

and

the

canvas

is

turning

cold

A

story

of

a

treasure

that

I

never

really

hold

It

wasn’

t

just

the

leaving,

it

was

seeing

who

you

are

A

beautiful

illusion

masking

a

hollow

star.

I

loved

the

way

you

moved

through

the

rooms

like

a

silent

prayer

Ignoring

the

heavy

silence

that

was

hanging

in

the

air

I

kept

on

painting

colors

on

a

wall

that

wasn’

t

there

Deaf

to

the

warning

sirens,

blind

to

the

icy

stare

I

was

worshiping

a

statue,

I

was

bowing

to

the

rain

Finding

a

strange

comfort

in

the

architecture

of

the

pain

But

a

mirror

only

reflects

what

you

want

it

to

believe

And

I

was

just

a

dreamer

who

was

desperate

not

to

leave.

Oh,

you

were

the

masterpiece

carved

out

of

ghost

and

light

A

hauntingly

perfect

vision

in

the

dead

of

the

night

But

the

frame

is

empty

and

the

canvas

is

turning

cold

A

story

of

a

treasure

that

I

never

really

hold

It

wasn’

t

just

the

leaving,

it

was

seeing

who

you

are

A

beautiful

illusion

masking

a

hollow

star.

And

the

tragedy

isn’

t

the

loss

of

the

touch

It’

s

how

I

loved

a

ghost

way

too

much

It’

s

the

way

the

light

catches

the

edge

of

the

lie

Making

me

wonder

how

I

couldn’

t

see

the

goodbye

Before

it

ever

happened,

before

the

ink

went

dry

Before

I

learned

the

difference

between

a

laugh

and

a

sigh.

Oh,

you

were

the

masterpiece

carved

out

of

ghost

and

light

A

hauntingly

perfect

vision

in

the

dead

of

the

night

But

the

frame

is

empty

and

the

canvas

is

turning

cold

A

story

of

a

treasure

that

I

never

really

hold

It

wasn’

t

just

the

leaving,

it

was

seeing

who

you

are

A

beautiful

illusion

masking

a

hollow

star.

Just

a

shadow

on

the

wall

Just

a

dream

before

the

fall

Beautiful,

but

never

real

Nothing

left

to

heal (

Piano

fades

into

silence) (

Final

lingering

cello

note)
