LAST MAN'S BREATH LYRICS

1. We Deserve

[Music by: Aníbal Salcedo]
[Clean guitar by: Camilo Cruz]
[Lyrics by: Camilo Rodríguez]

As drops begin to fall
A blurred image of us both
A cup of coffee already cold
Lost-sighted for what has been told
Conversations that took long
Looking for what was wrong
Pointing out, who had the fault?
Actions speak louder than words

Then I found out that with strange aeons even death can die
Redemption and oblivion, my gift for you at last

Please, reader, have no fear
Time every wound surely seal
Limerence's traits disappear
Like star-stuff, I imploded to heal
What doesn't kill you then reveal
Nobody's needed, it wasn't real
An open letter for you to read
Signed with love for you my dear

Then I found out that with strange aeons even death can die
Redemption and oblivion, my gift for you at last

Stories were written for us and the dust will erase them

2. Insomnia

[Music by: Camilo Cruz]
[Lyrics by: Camilo Rodríguez]

Turning off the light again
Day ends for the man with no name
Insomnia, the uninvited guest
And then they speak with no shame

So… here… you are… dear
Time… hurts… like… a spear
Speak not… I ain't… indulgent… saint

Is this what I was born for?
Why should I wrestle my own thoughts?
Will this haunt me forevermore?
Am I still worthy of a smile or so?

3 AM, they start to scare
But the man feels no eyes stare
Sighs and tears fill the air
And they speak with no shame

I can't… live… like this… anymore
Then do… what you… think is… utmost

Is this what I was born for?
Why should I wrestle my own thoughts?
Will this haunt me forevermore?
Am I still worthy of a smile or so?

It's hard… but I… try… my best
Your mind… guides this… never ending… quest

[Instrumental]

Eyes looking in disdain
Another night spent in vain
Turning on the light again
For the nameless man's sake

3. Of Void

[Music by: Aníbal Salcedo]
[Lyrics by: Camilo Rodríguez]

Going back to (the) garden where I used to play
Remembering when happiness was gone away
From twilight to dusk like a bird of prey
Gazing far up high, silence, (there's) no word to say

I wonder if all of this was worth of something
Any effort I try becomes a matter of nothing
Doing things to grant a smile, fake and disgusting
Knowing we're just dust of time's coming

Thinking and digging of what I could become
Realizing that this path lead me astray
This garden and it's roots are all that remains
Gazing far up high, silence, (the) same old portrait

Laying down senseless and tired, closing my eyes to see
Two seconds feels like an entire life, of what was supposed to be
A written page of a man and his glory, but of void we shall read
My pen was stolen and I truly believe, this sigh is my last breath

4. Transcending

[Music by: Camilo Cruz]
[Lyrics by: Camilo Rodríguez]

(How a girl escaped from depression released by suicide)

She never used to look back
But memories held her attached
She walked far from that past
Until emptiness found her at last

For many years she wore a mask
Faking a smile, so nobody asked
Even for herself she was an outcast
Until emptiness found her at last

Close your eyes and take my hand dear
In this eternal sleep there is no fear

So right here I am, you hideous face looking me in disdain
I swear this is the last time, you chase me and take me away from my pride

From now on I'll take care of you my child

Time went by and autumn leaves, the faces and places she knew still remain
Few ones remember her last handwritten words which says:

"This… is not about… pity or shame… is self-deceiving
I… have tried to fight… but now it's done… I am now leaving"
