The third song by White Taper Candles explores themes of betrayal and progress, while maintaining a somber, yet somehow uplifting tone. Released on the day of ☿, hour of ♀.

lyrics

I'm the burden you're unable to get rid of.
I'm the dust on all your happy thoughts.
I'm always with you, Sinner.
My company is all you've got.

I'm the weight of the past ten years.
I'm the venom seeping into your home.
I'll always be with you, Sinner,
You welcomed me into your bones.

I removed the burden from your shoulders,
I taught you to stand on your own.
And this is how you treat me, Sinner?
You try to shake me off my throne.

When the clock strikes midnight,
You'll feel the cold wind blow.
No turning a new leaf, Sinner,
Your tree of Life is dying alone.

The days of old are dead and gone,
But the memories remain.
You may have forgotten the good,
But you wont forget the pain.

The days of old are dead and gone,
But the memories remain.
You may have forgotten the good,
But you wont forget the pain.

Why did you have to bring it to this?

The days of old are dead and gone,
But the memories remain.
You may have forgotten the good,
But you wont forget the pain.

The days of old are dead and gone,
But the memories remain.
You may have forgotten the good,
But you wont forget the pain.
