The sound of white Lyrics

I love this song. It has so much depth and meaning to it. This is a heartfelt song about someone close to you that you love moving away from you, someone that is deeply trusted and missed. It also shows a sense of pain and resistance to move on. My favourite line is "Like a freeze-dried rose, you will never be, what you were, what you were to me in memory." It's saying nothing will be the same. I also love the line "But if I never fell again, at least that nothingness will end the painful dream, of you and me... " This once again shows that she is holding onto the dream of being together. This song is my favourite out of the cd and I can really relate to it :(
