Withered Ink

Lyrics: DJ_NEOHHY Music: DJ_NEOHHY Arranger: DJ_NEOHHY Old paper holds the withered ink Faint strokes tell the words we sink The moon bleeds light through paper screen A half-verse left, unspoken scene You said we’d fill the blank with rhyme You said the ink won’t fade with time You said our story won’t be thin Withered ink, dries the last of our kin I thought the ink would never fade I thought our verse would find its way I thought we’d write till dawn’s first ray But the paper turns to gray But the strokes fade away But the rhyme dies before we play The brush lies still on the old desk Cold wind blows through the empty rest I trace the lines where you once wrote Withered ink, hides the words unspoke You said we’d fill the blank with rhyme You said the ink won’t fade with time You said our story won’t be thin Withered ink, dries the last of our kin I thought the ink would never fade I thought our verse would find its way I thought we’d write till dawn’s first ray But the paper turns to gray But the strokes fade away But the rhyme dies before we play Oh~ Ink dries, rhyme dies Oh~ Page turns, heart burns Oh~ Old brush, cold hush I thought the ink would never fade I thought our verse would find its way But the rhyme dies before we play
