Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Disconnecting veins
In an effort to release my tragedy
All that we leave behind is misery
And my disease is a sanctuary
A curse that unfolds like a novel
But I'd sooner slit my wrists with the first page
[Verse 2]
I find it hard to feel alive
While my heart beats in borrowed time
The cadence that I've kept confined
Existing only in the black behind my eyes
[Verse 3]
Not worthy of a memory
Deny all grief and force yourself to forget me
Don't allow my ghost to linger any longer than it has
Let my spirit breathe, I've finally found peace
[Verse 4]
Allow me to exist only in
Only in the empty spaces between breaths
In the margin of each exhale
That you're sure that you have left
[Verse 5]
Be mindful of the way, speaking my name
Could leave a poison on your lips
And the ache that binds your bones
Will be my parting gift
[Verse 6]
A grave unfit to bear the blame
Pale limbs like flowers
To be tied in a bouquet
Let the soil refuse to cultivate
To be born, to live, to die
Rotting away
[Verse 7]
(A grave unfit to bear the blame)
(Pale limbs like flowers)
(To be tied in a bouquet)
(There's nothing to be done)
(I can't be saved)
[Verse 8]
I find it hard to feel alive
While my heart beats in borrowed time
The cadence that I've kept confined
Existing only in the black behind my eyes
[Verse 9]
Not worthy of a memory
Deny all grief and force yourself to forget me
Don't allow my ghost to linger any longer than it has
Let my spirit breathe, I've finally found peace
