Love Like Broken Glass - Cauda Pavonis

Antique love, enshrined, protected

From the dust of history

Paper flowers of devotion

Caged in bright sterility

Time is now past for regret

Time to forgive but never forget

No warmth, no pain, no fire, it’s only Love like broken glass

No passion, no desire, it’s only Love like broken glass, Love like broken glass

Held in stasis, all unchanging

Touched by none, admired by all

Circumstance has changed the balance

Hold your breath await the fall

Time is now past for regret

Time to forgive but never forget

Now the prison smashed and broken

Petals lie in diamond shards

In the needle-sharp reminders

Lies a broken, bleeding heart

Time is now past for regret

Time to forgive but never forget
