Lyrics Foreign Bodies - Bastions

Foreign Bodies

I’ve spent my life
Being screamed at
Courage give me heart
This time I’m screaming back
I want to close this door
I find it hard to do
To my future self
I’m sorry I failed you
Be still, be still
Every ounce of love I give, would never amount to bliss
Palm to palm, wrist to wrist, let me free of this
Casual lovers plead for acceptance and dabble in honesty
It lies at the bottom of a filled-in well, alone in misery
I see you
You vulture
I see you
Not welcome here
I’m loveless
So loveless
If you could be a better poison
With every cold and distant look
I’ll try to be a better person
A bleeding ocean your love
I’ve been drowning in your arms
Gladly drowning all these years
I wish I could let you go
But I still hold you close my dear
