Tenebrescence

Stop With the world around you still Breathe into me Hold Your fingers pressed against Your heartbeat And everything that's here Is rising in tone and saturation It's an aching, it's a violence It's a longing to erase the separation Turn around and shout my name, I need to hear it Come and pour out of my eyes like a flood Pull me back to a time when I existed Drown me in those memories I want to feel it all I want to feel it all Stop With the world around you still Breathe into me Hold Your fingers pressed against Your heartbeat And everything that's here Is rising in tone and saturation It's an aching, it's a violence It's a longing to erase the separation I don't wanna be happy, I don't wanna be good I wanna be real I wanna be real Looking up at me with hearts around your eyes Stretching arms to beckon me back to that bed This is more than just a memory It's the quiet place where everything that's warm and real inside of me still lives Break your crown and throw it tumbling to the earth Burn the gates of heaven down, if it's real Soak me in my mother's blood Show me that your arms can hold me Dive into the dying light and find me here
