This writing is savagery
The brutal parts of me unspooling before drawing blood
You draw a smile and I draw effigy
She's staring back at me
The simple lost parts of my heart that are moving and shaking
Holding and breaking
My will when it's waving and taking a stand
The best way I can, the best way I can, the best way I can
Do you want me to hold your hand
While I say this?
Time is falling and I'm not ageless
I feel the crimes unbind the pages
Break the spine and embrace the raging
Is inside of my mind and spirit
So unkind that when I hear it
I don't believe it
I don't believe it
Despite the odds, it really seems it
I'm coming alive
Despite your best attempts at mutiny
Despite your best attempts at breaking me apart
I'm fated to depart
And we'll come back to heart
Well, can you taste it?
A bitterness on my tongue
Sharp like acid and sweet like rum
Can you imagine the things I've done?
While I exaggerate what you've become
I centre myself within the storm
So I can rage as the weather warns
Upon my hands, upon my hands, upon my hands, I simply do not understand
Do you want honesty?
I don't know who I am or who I want to be
I've no idea who's walking beside me
As the bell tolls and drum rolls and I cry out heavily
Is it enough to be?
I've built a life but now it's crumbling
And joy is mortality, joy is mortality
It's here an instant and then it's gone instantly
I'm coming alive
Despite your best attempts at mutiny
Despite your best attempts at breaking me apart
I'm fated to depart
And we'll come back to heart
'Cause I'm coming alive
Despite your best attempts at mutiny
Despite your best attempts at breaking me apart
I'm fated to depart
And we'll come back to heart
We'll come back to heart
