I can't breathe and
Your breath spins my cocoon
I've been fighting but
I think I'll be stopping soon
Every fear and every nightmare
Becomes my waking dream
And all I know is my life is not
What it should be . .
I can't cry and
Your words cut like a blade
I don't have tears but at least the blood
Runs down my face
Every hope and every hate
Falls to ash inside your flames
And all I see is killing me
I've become your sweet disgrace
I can't live and
Your sin is like a stone
Around my neck, and
The waters call me home
Every scream and every pain
Hushed on cold blue lips
And all I was will die with me
But I will tell you this
You won't breathe and you won't cry and
My fire will consume
All your hopes and all your dreams
It will all be over soon
You will burn inside my hate and
It will all be over soon
I can't cry and
your words cut like a blade
I don't have tears but at least the blood
Runs down my face
Runs down my face and
It will all be over soon
