lyrics

There was nothing I had done to deserve this,
I protected what I thought was mine.
Echoes catch me through the halls and I hear her speak my name
Anger in her voice, embarrassed, she persuades she’s not to blame.
My eyelids could not grace me with the comforts of my dreams
But I feel her moving in when her warmth blankets me

“lye with me, please just hold me” she speaks, so I give in
How foolish I was to disregard my comfort and take in arms.
She’s swelling up, her voice mutters in disgust, mistook indulgence.

The warmth of her body recedes, my breathing has lost pace, my hearts replaced
We got lost on our way in, with our fears set aside,
I could not fight the growing distress that plagued us,
We lost ourselves on the way out, our eyes could not recognize,

I took hold my anguish and tore through her world,
The heart you once carried has turned to rust
Inside the remnants of your walls
My voice will creep through your skin and haunt your sleep

I’ve embraced the ghosts that haunt me
I have set myself free,
I’ve embraced your ghost that haunts me
I am finally set free.
I have set myself free.
