Song language: English
Collapse |
| Back-pedaling into the black |
| But I can still make out the figures |
| That will threaten my well-being |
| The wind will rise and fall |
| But never sway from side to side |
| Progression halted |
| Encapsulating the fluid weave of death |
| Like a garden that contains all of its arrested offspring |
| We’re afraid to force our legs to break free from the earth |
| And take the first step towards our insecurity |
| Sleep away your selfishness |
| Slip into collapse |
| A still-like state of disregard |
| From which you can’t fall back |
| You never fully moved me |
| I’ve been embedded in the dust |
| And my mind has been ravaged by war |
| Pray for farewell as if I was yours to lose |
| I would love to love you, if you were someone else |
| So forgive me for being unresponsive |
| I’m sure it’s hard to train your ears |
| To hear me crying out for help |
| With my lips sewn shut by the stitches of my own indecision |
| So I’ll speak in whispers to permit my throat relief |
| I bite my tongue |
| Fill my mouth with blood |
| And swallow enough to kill me |
| Before I’m forced to lose more sleep |
| So I’ll speak in whispers to permit my throat relief |
| I bite my tongue |
| Fill my mouth with blood |
| And swallow enough to kill me |
| I would love to love you |
| If you were someone else |
| Am I fit to walk alone again |
| Or will you save me from myself? |
| Breathe life into me |
| Be all that I can see |
| Or carry on without me |
| And just know I wished you well |
