lyrics

My every instinct characterized by a crooked tongue.
A panic in my voice, a malicious smile forms my teeth.

I want to know why we wasted so much time, looking for answers but only believing the lies.
My hopes fruition, obscured by good intention.
But you stumbled and I held you down, choking the breath from your mouth.

Your voice like the warmth in my breath.
Only seen when it's cold enough to need proof that it's there.
You've borrowed life from my chest.
But you've borrowed a darkness I didn't know was there.

But I want this.
You had me.

A former belief. A former belief and it's dying out.
A cataclysmic shift in the way you look when I say "Hey, I need this."
I need this.

I want to know why we wasted so much time, looking for answers but only believing the lies.
My hopes fruition, obscured by good intention.
But you stumbled and I held you down, choking the breath from your mouth.

Your voice like the warmth in my chest,
who's heart is lost when unwoken from rest.
I'm caught it the darkness, it's a dream.
A whole world to remember the seemingly stitches made to please.
