[Verse 1]
Come in close to me and bring me joy
Lift me higher, much higher and higher
Than the light allows
I wanted to be everything, everything for you
Well, I wanted you, I needed you, I thought that you did too
You built me beauty, then you took it all away
And I can't face another day
[Verse 2]
I die for you today
I die for you today
I die for you today
I die for you today
But you took it all away
[Verse 3]
Tempt me, sweet tempest, and shower me with stars
I want to be as beautiful as you
Take me to the summit and show me
Show me all that I could ever have
You brought me everything I ever thought I wanted
And now you take it all away
[Verse 4]
You gave me love
And then you killed me blindly
I think I died for you today
I can't pursue another way
[Verse 5]
I die for you today
I die for you today
I die for you today
I die for you today
But you took it all away
[Verse 6]
Like a garden growin' flames
A forest filled with fear of the wind
Like the moon so beautiful from afar
But shattered on the surface full of scars
A sea with no more fish, planets without air
Whales with no more song, I know I'm gonna die with them
[Verse 7]
I die for you today
I die for you today
I die for you today
I die for you today
I die for you today
But you took it all away
