The cracks are showing
Drawn, distressed tones now shape our meaning
Slinging us closer to black and white
As worn, paper hearts
We've morphed to diluted entity
Naive fragments poised for benight
An old photograph
Would-be better half
Seems strange,... place and time
I don't recognize
Anything ... anymore
What was it all for?
(Nothingness love,... where did we go wrong?)
(Nothingness love,... shadowy swan song)
The cracks are showing
Bleary routine captures, dye is cast
Amassed with the death of empathy
Tattered, paper hearts
Jaded well beyond a single doubt
Burned-out keepsake is last certainty
An old photograph
Would-be better half
Seems strange,... place and time
I don't recognize
Anything ... anymore
What was it all for?
(Nothingness love,... where did we go wrong?)
(Nothingness love,... shadowy swan song)

this has a great lyrical tone to this...the refrain is nice...the wold be better half line plays really well off the line before as well with double meaning...nice...
