lyrics; me.

//

i've stayed my hand for the last time
with your words written across my neck
in gold and blood oh such fine design
only offers oaths in tongues we neglect

it's a walk in the park
it is until it's not
you love in the dark
you've made me a narc

prepared for the end
i smoke a cigarette
turn a fiend, turn a friend
no, this time i can't forget

could i ever be
the kingdom i offered
you've crippled yourself
three times more often

so sick (so sick); feel it build to a fever
pray quick; what a worrisome creature

maybe i've been crying over nothing
maybe just the end of the world
too frightened of what i'm becoming
reaffirmed by all i yearn and bore

seized up in the moment (left in sleep)
like a hand grip on my windpipe (kept unaware)
seized up in the moment (left in sleep)
like a hand grip on my windpipe (kept unaware)

prepared for the end
i smoke a cigarette
turn a fiend, turn a friend
no, this time i can't forget

could i ever be
the kingdom i offered
you've crippled yourself
three times more often

you were all of it, all i ever wanted
forgotten phrase caught in my throat
cut into the walls raw and bonded
and kept from sound born into host

next to me, you descend from me
lie to me, pretend to be
next to me, you descend from me
lie to me, pretend to be

here.

could i ever be
the kingdom i offered
you've crippled yourself
three times more often

so sick (so sick); feel it build to a fever
pray quick; what a worrisome creature
