It¡¯s been so many years since the first time I died.
|
The vultures have been gone for so long
|
The past starts again
|
But now it¡¯s all been covered in ash
|
Dust yourself off and shine your bones cause
|
We¡¯ve got a long way to go
|
I am the king of love to hate
|
You said we¡¯d be together forever
|
I hope my candor doesn¡¯t piss you off
|
But I wasn¡¯t joking
|
Forever¡¯s the last word I want to hear come out of your mouth
|
You are unchanged, why?
|
And no matter how it looks
|
I¡¯m just now realizing they look better awake
|
Then they ever did asleep
|
The pieces are bursting together
|
I¡¯ve been trying for so long to place them
|
Circles inside squares sparing and spoiling¡¦
|
And now finally I¡¯ve left
|
Burning and gasping for life
|
You¡¯re drowning, but you¡¯re not, you won¡¯t
|
You are unchanged, why? Unchanged. How?
|
This is the only way. Spit out the candles that keep me away from you.
|
This is not an invitation. This is my plea.
|
I want to lay down in the trap you set for me
|
And wait in peace for you
|
I¡¯m bleeding from the inside but nothing can protect myself from you
|
I want to lay down next to you and forget the world
|
The only people that exist are you and I.
|
I want to look you in the eyes and count my blessings
|
You are so much more than just my other half
|
I¡¯m telling you right now, I¡¯d sell my soul for you.
