Memento Mori

[Verse]
The clock it whispers soft and low
A secret only shadows know
Each tick a step
Each tock a grave
Time won’t stop
It can’t be saved

[Prechorus]
The stars burn out
The sky turns black
No map
No way
No turning back

[Chorus]
Memento mori
Hear the call
Life’s a tower
Bound to fall
Breathe the fire
Taste the rain
Love the beauty
Hold the pain

[Verse 2]
The mirror cracks
The glass runs red
We chase the future
Fear the dead
A candle flickers
Wax runs thin
It’s not the end
But where it begins

[Prechorus]
The winds they howl
The earth it moans
A melody of brittle bones

[Chorus]
Memento mori
Hear the call
Life’s a tower
Bound to fall
Breathe the fire
Taste the rain
Love the beauty
Hold the pain
