Carrier - Misery Signals

Never again will she see a sunrise awakening

Over a world unbroken

He brought the night with him

Beyond the gates while she safely slept

Never again

The way she turns her face from passing strangers

Is part of her now, echoing

The way she wakes up cold

And calls her father’s name is part of her now

Echoes of him

Never again will she hear the raindrops

Fall against the glass and not feel a chill

Transported back to the night it changed

And the sound of the front door forced open

She awoke to the panic

Down the stairs she crept

A family he’d never met, broken in pieces

Every single step, every living breath

Underneath her nails, she will carry his pain

When the structure of your new life breaks through the door

It will already be sealed in the past

Every single step, every living breath

Underneath her nails, she will carry his pain

When the structure of her new life broke through the door

It was already sealed in the past
