The weight came and went and took my will to live.
|
|
Spoiled by defeat, forced to drown in what's left of me.
|
|
That's when breathing became routine, and I could feel myself fading.
|
|
Stranded.
|
|
No direction, I am a compass.
|
|
Constantly spinning.
|
|
Constantly searching for the end.
|
|
Never reaching our destination.
|
|
But the goal was never when, or where, or who...; It was only you.
|
|
I appeared in your arms as if I had been born there.
|
|
You promised you'd never let me go.
|
|
But I don't know what to believe anymore.
|
|
Affection allowed me to let the light in, the fear made me whole again.
|
|
Help me rebuild my broken bones.
|
|
Help me regain my sanity.
|
|
But with caution always present, our pasts manifest themselves.
|
|
And we act as if this is what we deserve.
|
|
But I refuse to fail again.
|
|
I'd force my ghost to write your name in the flowers on my grave.
|
|
I watched the world give up on me.
|
|
I used to spend my nights praying for air in my bloodstream, now i long to feel your breath pass through my arteries.
|
|
The goal was never when, or where, or who...; It was only you.
|
|
I appeared in your arms as if I had been born there.
|
|
You promised you'd never let me go.
|
|
But I don't know what to believe anymore.
|
|
Fill me with your faith and let me leave.
|
|
I'm scratching at my skin to take my mind off the absence we've created.
|
|
The lines blur together like the veins in my arms.
|
|
And I wish I wasn't so alone, You are the difference between Hell and Home.
