LIES (DEMO)
Bind my limbs with fear, choke me with tears, I won't die for you.
You've been here before and come back for more, but not this time.
You will never be strong enough, you will never be good enough,
You were never conceived in love, you will not rise above.
Somebody tell me what made us all believe you, I should have known all along it was all a lie.
Now I know the truth, I'm through fearing you and I am free.
You will never be strong enough, you will never be good enough,
You were never conceived in love, you will not rise above.
Somebody tell me what made us all believe you, I should have known all along it was all a lie.
LISTEN TO THE RAIN
Listen to each drop of rain, whispering secrets in vain,
Frantically searching for someone to hear their story before they hit ground.
Please don't let go, can't we stay for a while? It's just too hard to say goodbye.
Listen to the rain weeping.
I stand alone in the storm, suddenly sweet words take hold,
Hurry, they say, for you haven't much time, open your eyes to the love around you.
You may feel you're alone but I'm here still with you,
You can do what you dream, just remember to listen to the rain.
GOODNIGHT
Goodnight, sleep tight, no more tears; in the morning I'll be here.
And when we say goodnight, dry your eyes, because we said goodnight, and not goodbye.
BEFORE THE DAWN
Meet me after dark again and I'll hold you, I am nothing more than to see you there,
And maybe tonight, we'll fly so far away, we'll be lost before the dawn.
If only night could hold you where I can see you, my love, then let me never ever wake again,
And maybe tonight, we'll fly so far away, we'll be lost before the dawn.
Somehow I know that we can't wake again from this dream; it's not real, but it's ours.
Maybe tonight, we'll fly so far away, we'll be lost before the dawn.
FOREVER YOU
I wanted you to be with me for so long I don't even know why now,
But now that I've given up on you, defiantly you see me.
Walking away, I see the pain you put me through,
Lost in your game to change the same, forever gone, forever you.
There's something very wrong about this, I think you knew all along somehow.
You'll only take me to change my mind, and leave me broken and defeated.
So far away, I see the truth, I see through you.
Now that I know the way you play, I don't want to.
Walking away, I see the pain you put me through.
Lost in your game to change the same, forever gone, forever you.
SURRENDER
Is this real enough for you? You were so confused.
Now that you've decided to stay, we'll remain together.
You can't abandon me, you belong to me.
Breathe in and take my life in you, no longer myself, only you.
There's no escaping me, my love, surrender.
Darling, there's no sense in running, you know I will find you.
Everything is perfect now, we can live forever.
You can't abandon me, you belong to me.
Breathe in and take my life in you, no longer myself, only you.
There's no escaping me, my love, surrender.
(You will surrender to me, there's no escaping from me,
My love will hold you to me, you must surrender to me.)
ANYTHING FOR YOU
I'd give anything to give me to you, can you forget the world that you thought you knew?
If you want me, come and find me (I'm here for you), nothing's stopping you, so please release me.
I'll believe all your lies, just pretend you love me; make believe, close your eyes, I'll be anything for you.
Nothing left to make me feel anymore, there's only you and every day I need more.
If you want me, come and find me (anything you want me to be), I'll do anything you say, just tell me.
I'll believe all your lies, just pretend you love me; make believe, close your eyes, I'll be anything for you.
I'll become your earth and sky forever, never die, I'll be everything you need.
BLEED
How can I pretend that I don't see what you hide so carelessly?
I saw her bleed, you heard me breathe, and I froze inside myself and turned away.
I must be dreaming.
We all live, we all die, that does not begin to justify you.
It's not what it seems, not what you think, no, I must be dreaming.
It's only in my mind, not real life, no, I must be dreaming.
Help, you know I've got to tell someone, tell them what I know you've done.
I fear you, but spoken fears can come true.
We all live, we all die, that does not begin to justify you.
It's not what it seems, not what you think, no, I must be dreaming.
It's only in my mind, not real life, no, I must be dreaming.
from the EP "Evanescence"
WHERE WILL YOU GO
You're too important for anyone, there's something wrong with everything you see.
But I know who you really are, you're the one who cries when you're alone.
Where will you go with no one left to save you from yourself? You can't escape, you don't want to escape.
However did you manage to push away from every living thing you come across?
So afraid that anyone will hate you, you pretend you hate them first.
But where will you go with no one left to save you from yourself? You can't escape the truth.
I realise you're afraid, but you can't refrain from everything, you can't escape.
I'm so sick of speaking words that no one understands.
Is it clear enough that you can't live your whole life all alone?
I can hear you when you whisper but you can't even hear me screaming.
And where will you go with no one left to save you from yourself? You can't escape the truth.
I realise you're afraid, but you can't reject the whole world.
You can't escape, you won't escape, you can't escape, you don't want to escape.
SOLITUDE
How many times have you told me you love her? As many times as I've wanted to tell you the truth.
How long have I stood here beside you? I lived through you, you looked through me.
Solitude, still with me is only you; solitude, I can't stay away from you.
How many times have I done this to myself? How long will it take before I see?
When will this hole in my heart be mended? Who now is left alone but me?
Solitude, forever me and forever you; solitude, only you, only true.
Everyone leave me stranded, forgotten, abandoned, left behind; I can't stay here another night.
Your secret admirer, who could it be? Can't you see all along it was me?
How can you be so blind as to see right through me?
Solitude, still with me is only you; solitude, I can't stay away from you.
Solitude, forever me and forever you; solitude, only you, only true.
EXODUS
My black backpack's stuffed with broken dreams, twenty bucks should get me through the week.
Never said a word of discontentment, I've thought it a thousand times but now I'm leaving home.
Here in the shadows, I'm safe, I'm free; I've nowhere else to go but I cannot stay where I don't belong.
Two months pass by and it's getting cold; I know I'm not lost, I'm just alone,
But I won't cry, I won't give up, I can't go back now; waking up is knowing who you really are.
Here in the shadows, I'm safe, I'm free; I've nowhere else to go but I cannot stay where I don't belong.
In the shadows, I'm safe, I'm free; I've nowhere else to go but I cannot stay here.
Show me the shadow where true meaning lies, so much more dismay in empty eyes.
SO CLOSE
I've spent so much time throwing rocks at your window that I never even knocked on the front door.
I walked by statues, never even made one chip, but if I could leave a mark on the monument of you heart,
I just might lay myself down with a little more hope than I had the last day.
Wait a time to spare these lies we tell ourselves.
These days have come and gone but this time is sweeter than honey.
UNDERSTANDING
(You hold the answer deep within your own mind. Consciously you've forgotten it; that's the way the human mind works.
Whenever something is too unpleasant, too shameful for us to entertain, we reject it, we erase it from our memory, but the imprint is always there.)
The pain that grips you, the fear that binds you releases life in me.
In our mutual shame we hide our eyes to blind them from the truth that finds a way for who we are.
Please don't be afraid when the darkness fades away, the dawn will break the silence screaming in our hearts.
My love for you still grows, this I do for you before I try to fight the truth my final time.
(We're supposed to try and be real, and when you feel alone, you are not together, and that is real.)
Can't wash it all away, can't wish it all away, can't cry it all away, can't scratch it all away.
Lying beside you, listening to you breathe, the light that flows inside of you burns inside of me.
Hold and speak to me of love without a sound, tell me you will live through this and I will die for you.
Cast me not away, say you'll be with me, for I know I cannot bear it all alone.
Can't fight it all away, can't hope it all away, can't scream it all away, it just won't fade away.
Can't wash it all away, can't wish it all away, can't cry it all away, can't scratch it all away.
(But the imprint is always there, nothing is ever really forgotten.)
(God, just don't hate me, because I'll die if you do.)
GIVE UNTO ME
I've been watching you from a distance, the distance sees through your disguise.
All I want from you is your hurting, I want to heal you, I want to save you from the dark.
Give unto me your troubles, I'll endure your suffering, place onto me your burden, I'll drink your deadly poison.
Why should I care if they hurt you? Somehow it matters more to me than if I were hurting myself.
I'll save you.
Give unto me your troubles, I'll endure all your suffering, place onto me your burden, I'll drink your deadly poison.
Fear not the flame of my love's candle, let it be the sun in your world of darkness.
Give unto me all that frightens you, I'll have your nightmares for you if you sleep soundly.
OCTOBER
I can't run anymore, I fall before you, here I am, I have nothing left.
Though I've tried to forget, you're all that I am, take me home, I'm through fighting it.
Broken, lifeless, I give up, you're my only strength.
Without you I can't go on anymore, ever again.
My only hope, my only peace, my only joy, my only strength, my only power, my only life, my only love.
(All the times I've tried to walk away from you, I fall into your abounding grace, and love is where I am.)
I can't run anymore, I give myself to you, I'm sorry.
In all my bitterness, I ignored all that's real and true, all I need is you.
When night falls on me, I'll not close my eyes, I'm too alive and you're too strong.
I can't lie anymore, I fall down before you, I'm sorry.
My only hope, my only peace, my only joy, my only strength,
My only hope, my only peace, my only joy, my only strength, my only power, my only life, my only love.
(All the times I've tried to walk away from you, I fall into your abounding grace, and love is where I am.)
Constantly ignoring the pain consuming me, but this time it's cut too deep, I'll never stray again.
MY IMMORTAL
I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears,
I would give the very breath from my chest to give you all the things that my mind couldn't bear.
And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave, cause your presence still lingers here, and it won't leave me alone.
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real, there's just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears,
And I held your hand through all of these years, but you still have all of me.
You used to captivate me by your resonating light, now I'm bound by the life you left behind.
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams, your voice it chased away all the sanity in me.
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real, there's just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears,
And I held your hand through all of these years, but you still have all of me.
I'd love to walk away and pull myself out of the rain, but I can't leave without you.
I'd love to live without the constant fear and endless doubt, but I can't live without you.
from the EP "Sound Asleep"
FORGIVE ME
Can you forgive me again? I don't know what I said, but I didn't mean to hurt you.
I heard the words come out, I felt that I would die, it hurt so much to hurt you.
Then you look at me, you're not shouting anymore, you're silently broken.
I'd give anything now to kill those words for you.
Each time I say something I regret I cry, I don't want to lose you, but somehow I know that you will never leave me.
Cause you were made for me, somehow I'll make you see how happy you make me.
I can't live this life without you by my side, I need you to survive, so stay with me.
You look in my eyes and I'm screaming inside that I'm sorry.
And you forgive me again, you're my one true friend and I never meant to hurt you.
from the album "Origin"
IMAGINARY
Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming, cannot cease for the fear of silent nights.
Oh how I long for the deep sleep dreaming, the goddess of imaginary light.
In my field of paper flowers and candy clouds of lullaby, I lie inside myself for hours and watch my purple sky fly over me.
I linger in the doorway of alarm clocks screaming, monsters calling my name.
Let me stay where the wind will whisper to me, where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story.
If you need to leave the world you live in, lay your head down and stay awhile.
Though you may not remember dreaming, something waits for you breathe again.
In my field of paper flowers and candy clouds of lullaby, I lie inside myself for hours and watch my purple sky fly over me.
WHERE WILL YOU GO
You're too important for anyone, you play the role of what I want to be.
But I know who you really are, you're the one who cries when you're alone.
But where will you go with no one left to save you from yourself? You can't escape.
You think that I can't see right through your eyes, scared to death to face reality.
No one seems to hear your hidden cries, you're left to face yourself alone.
But where will you go with no one left to save you from yourself? You can't escape the truth.
I realise you're afraid, but you can't abandon everyone, you can't escape, you don't want to escape.
I'm so sick of speaking words that no one understands, is it clear enough that you can't live your whole life all alone?
I can hear you when you whisper but you can't even hear me screaming.
Where will you go with no one left to save you from yourself? You can't escape the truth.
I realise you're afraid, but you can't reject the whole world.
You can't escape, you won't escape, you can't escape, you don't want to escape.
FIELD OF INNOCENCE
I still remember the world from the eyes of a child, slowly those feelings were clouded by what I know now.
Where has my heart gone, an uneven trade for the real world?
I want to go back to believing in everything and knowing nothing at all.
I still remember the sun, always warm on my back, somehow it seems colder now.
Where has my heart gone, trapped in the eyes of a stranger? I want to go back to believing in everything.
EVEN IN DEATH
Give me a reason to believe that you're gone, I see your shadow so I know they're all wrong.
Moonlight on the soft brown earth, it leads me to where you lay.
They took you away from me but now I'm taking you home.
I will stay forever here with you, my love.
The softly spoken words you gave me, even in death our love goes on.
Some say I'm crazy for my love, but no bonds can hold me from your side, my love.
They don't know you can't leave me, they don't hear you singing to me.
I will stay forever here with you, my love.
The softly spoken words you gave me, even in death our love goes on.
And I can't love you any more than I do.
ANYWHERE
Dear my love, haven't you wanted to be with me, and dear my love, haven't you longed to be free?
I can't keep pretending that I don't even know you and at sweet night you are my own.
Take my hand, we're leaving here tonight, there's no need to tell anyone, they'd only hold us down.
So by the morning's light, we'll be halfway to anywhere where love is more than just your name.
I have dreamt of a place for you and I, no one knows who we are there.
All I want is to give my life only to you, I've dreamt so long I cannot dream anymore.
Let's run away, I'll take you there, we're leaving here tonight, there's no need to tell anyone, they'd only hold us down.
So by the morning's light, we'll be halfway to anywhere where no one needs a reason.
Forget this life, come with me, don't look back, you're safe now.
Unlock your heart, drop your guard, no one's left to stop you now.
LIES
Bound at every limb by my shackles of fear, sealed with lies through so many tears,
Lost from within, pursuing the end, I fight for the chance to be lied to again.
You will never be strong enough, you will never be good enough, you were never conceived in love, you will not rise above.
They'll never see, I'll never be, I'll struggle on and on to feed this hunger burning deep inside of me.
But through my tears breaks a blinding light, birthing a dawn to this endless night,
Arms outstretched awaiting me, an open embrace upon a bleeding tree.
Rest in me and I'll comfort you, I have lived and I died for you, abide in me and I vow to you I will never forsake you.
They'll never see, I'll never be, I'll struggle on and on to feed this hunger burning deep inside of me.
AWAY FROM ME
I hold my breath as this life starts to take its toll, I hide behind a smile as this perfect plan unfolds,
But oh God, I feel I've been lied to, lost all faith in the things I have achieved,
And I've woken now to find myself in the shadows of all I have created.
I'm longing to be lost in you (away from this place I have made), just take me away from me.
Crawling through this world as disease flows through my veins, I look into myself but my own heart has been changed.
I can't go on like this, I loathe all I've become.
I've woken now to find myself in the shadows of all I have created.
I'm longing to be lost in you (away from this place I have made), just take me away from me.
Lost in a dying world, I reach for something more, I have grown so weary of this lie I live.
from the album "Fallen"
GOING UNDER
Now I will tell you what I've done for you, fifty thousand tears I've cried.
Screaming, deceiving and bleeding for you, and you still won't hear me.
Don't want your hand this time, I'll save myself, maybe I'll wake up for once.
Not tormented daily, defeated by you, just when I thought I'd reached the bottom.
I'm dying again, I'm going under, drowning in you, I'm falling forever, I've got to break through, I'm going under.
Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies so I don't know what's real and what's not.
Always confusing the thoughts in my head so I can't trust myself anymore.
I'm dying again, I'm going under, drowning in you, I'm falling forever, I've got to break through,
So go on and scream, scream at me, I'm so far away, I won't be broken again, I've got to breathe, I can't keep going under.
BRING ME TO LIFE
How can you see into my eyes like open doors, leading you down into my core where I've become so numb?
Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold until you find it there and lead it back home.
Wake me up inside, call my name and save me from the dark.
Bid my blood to run before I come undone, save me from the nothing I've become.
Now that I know what I'm without, you can't just leave me, breathe into me and make me real, bring me to life.
Wake me up inside, call my name and save me from the dark.
Bid my blood to run before I come undone, save me from the nothing I've become.
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside.)
Frozen inside without your touch, without your love, darling, only you are the life among the dead.
All this time I can't believe I couldn't see, kept in the dark but you were there in front of me.
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems, got to open my eyes to everything.
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul, don't let me die here.
There must be something more, bring me to life.
EVERYBODY'S FOOL
Perfect by nature, icons of self indulgence, just what we all need, more lies about a world that
Never was and never will be, have you no shame, don't you see me? You know you've got everybody fooled.
Look, here she comes now, bow down and stare in wonder, oh how we love you, no flaws when you're pretending.
But now I know she never was and never will be, you don't know how you've betrayed me and somehow you've got everybody fooled.
Without the mask, where will you hide? Can't find yourself lost in your lie.
I know the truth now, I know who you are, and I don't love you anymore.
It never was and never will be, you don't know how you've betrayed me and somehow you've got everybody fooled.
It never was and never will be, you're not real and you can't save me, somehow now you're everybody's fool.
MY IMMORTAL
I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears, and if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave,
Cause your presence still lingers here, and it won't leave me alone.
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real, there's just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears,
And I held your hand through all of these years, but you still have all of me.
You used to captivate me by your resonating light, but now I'm bound by the life you left behind.
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams, your voice it chased away all the sanity in me.
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real, there's just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears,
And I held your hand through all of these years, but you still have all of me.
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone, but though you're still with me, I've been alone all along.
HAUNTED
Long lost words whisper slowly to me, still can't find what keeps me here,
When all this time I've been so hollow inside (I know you're still there),
Watching me, wanting me, I can feel you pull me down.
Fearing you, loving you, I won't let you pull me down.
Hunting you, I can smell you, alive, your heart pounding in my head.
Watching me, wanting me, I can feel you pull me down, saving me, raping me, watching me.
TOURNIQUET
I tried to kill the pain, but only brought more (so much more), I lay dying and I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal.
I'm dying, praying, bleeding and screaming; am I too lost to be saved, am I too lost?
My God, my tourniquet, return to me salvation.
Do you remember me, lost for so long? Will you be on the other side or will you forget me?
I'm dying, praying, bleeding and screaming; am I too lost to be saved, am I too lost?
My God, my tourniquet, return to me salvation.
My wounds cry for the grave, my soul cries for deliverance, will I be denied Christ, tourniquet, my suicide?
IMAGINARY
I linger in the doorway of alarm clocks screaming, monsters calling my name.
Let me stay where the wind will whisper to me, where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story.
In my field of paper flowers and candy clouds of lullaby, I lie inside myself for hours and watch my purple sky fly over me.
Don't say I'm out of touch with this rampant chaos, your reality.
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge, the nightmare I built, my own world to escape.
In my field of paper flowers and candy clouds of lullaby, I lie inside myself for hours and watch my purple sky fly over me.
Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming, cannot cease for the fear of silent nights.
Oh how I long for the deep sleep dreaming, the goddess of imaginary light.
TAKING OVER ME
You don't remember me but I remember you, I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you.
But who can decide what they dream? And dream I do.
I believe in you, I'll give up everything just to find you, I have to be with you to live, to breathe, you're taking over me.
Have you forgotten all I know and all we had? You saw me mourning my love for you and touched my hand.
I knew you loved me then.
I believe in you, I'll give up everything just to find you, I have to be with you to live, to breathe, you're taking over me.
I look in the mirror and see your face if I look deep enough, so many things inside that are just like you are taking over.
HELLO
Playground school bell rings again, rain clouds come to play again.
Has no one told you she's not breathing? Hello, I am your mind giving you someone to talk to, hello.
If I smile and don't believe, soon I know I'll wake from this dream.
Don't try to fix me, I'm not broken; hello, I am the lie living for you so you can hide, don't cry.
Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping, hello, I'm still here, all that's left of yesterday.
MY LAST BREATH
Hold on to me, love, you know I can't stay long, all I wanted to say was I love you and I'm not afraid.
Can you hear me? Can you feel me in your arms?
Holding my last breath, safe inside myself are all my thoughts of you, sweet raptured light, it ends here tonight.
I miss the winter, a world of fragile things, look for me in the white forest, hiding in a hollow tree (come find me).
I know you hear me, I can taste it in your tears.
Holding my last breath, safe inside myself are all my thoughts of you, sweet raptured light, it ends here tonight.
Closing your eyes to disappear, you pray your dreams will leave you here,
But still you wake and know the truth, no one's there.
Say goodnight, don't be afraid, calling me as you fade to black.
WHISPER
Catch me as I fall, say you're here and it's all over now.
Speaking to the atmosphere, no one's here and I fall into myself.
This truth drives me into madness, I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away.
Don't turn away (don't give in to the pain), don't try to hide (though they're screaming your name),
Don't close your eyes (God knows what lies behind them), don't turn out the light (never sleep, never die).
I'm frightened by what I see but somehow I know that there's much more to come.
Immobilised by my fear and soon to be blinded by tears, I can stop the pain if I will it all away.
Don't turn away (don't give in to the pain), don't try to hide (though they're screaming your name),
Don't close your eyes (God knows what lies behind them), don't turn out the light (never sleep, never die).
Fallen angels at my feet, whispered voices at my ear, death before my eyes, lying next to me I fear.
She beckons me, shall I give in? Upon my end, shall I begin? Forsaking all I've fallen for I rise to meet the end.
(Servatis a periculum, servatis a maleficum.)
from the album "anywhere but home"
THOUGHTLESS
Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies, pushing all the mercy down.
I want to see you try to take a swing at me; come on, gonna put you on the ground.
Why are you trying to make fun of me? You think it's funny, what the fuck you think it's doing to me?
You take your turns lashing out at me, I want you crying when you're dirty and in front of me.
All of my hate cannot be bound, I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming.
So you can try to tear me down, beat me to the ground, I will see you screaming.
Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies, I'm above you, smiling at you, drown.
I want to kill and rape you the way you raped me, as I pull the trigger and you're down.
Why are you trying to make fun of me? You think it's funny, what the fuck you think it's doing to me?
You take your turns lashing out at me, I want you crying when you're dirty and in front of me.
All of my hate cannot be bound, I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming.
So you can try to tear me down, beat me to the ground, I will see you screaming.
All my friends are gone, they died, they all screamed and cried.
Gonna take you down!
FARTHER AWAY
I took their smiles and I made them mine, I sold my soul just to hide the light,
And now I see what I really am, a thief, a whore and a liar.
I run to you, call out your name, I see you there, farther away.
I'm numb to you, numb and deaf and blind, you give me all but the reason why.
I reach but I feel only air at night, not you, not love, just nothing.
I run to you, call out your name, I see you there, farther away.
Try to forget you, but without you I feel nothing,
Don't leave me here by myself, I can't breathe.
I run to you, call out your name, I see you there, farther away.
MISSING
Please forgive me, but I won't be home again.
Maybe someday you'll look up, and barely conscious, you'll say to no one, 'Isn't something missing?'
You won't cry for my absence, I know, you forgot me long ago.
Am I that unimportant? Am I so insignificant? Isn't something missing? Isn't someone missing me?
Even though I'm the sacrifice, you won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me, I'm all alone, isn't someone missing me?
Please forgive me, but I won't be home again.
I know what you do to yourself, I breathe deep and cry out, Isn't something missing? Isn't someone missing me?
Even though I'm the sacrifice, you won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me, I'm all alone, Isn't someone missing me?
And if I bleed, I'll bleed, knowing you don't care.
And if I sleep just to dream of you and wake without you there, isn't something missing?
BREATHE NO MORE
I've been looking in the mirror for so long that I've come to believe my soul's on the other side.
All the little pieces falling shatter, shards of me too sharp to put back together,
Too small to matter, but big enough to cut me into so many little pieces if I try to touch her,
And I bleed, and I breathe no more.
Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirit's well; yet again you refuse to drink, like a stubborn child.
Lie to me, convince me that I've been sick forever and all of this will make sense when I get better.
I know the difference between myself and my reflection, I just can't help but to wonder which of us do you love?
So I bleed, and I breathe no more.
