lyrics

I'm scared to death without you around
I'm scared your feet won't ever touch back down [1]

come down, come down

visions in my sleep;
a fragile face, a grave for two

now this room's a terrible place
terrible place, just refuse

this space is a terrible place
terrible place, without you

dear God I, never thought I'd
lose this much this time (this much this time)
it's a living hell tonight
but only in my mind

my god I, can't justify
these old fears despite
when worlds apart, one lone heart
still beats in unison with mine

I see your ghost
everytime my eyes close
(I feel your bones)
will you stay if I never wake?
I'd really like to know

separate, isolate me

"one person's happiness
comes from another's misfortune" [2]

I will drown in myself, if it helps you sleep at night
as the memory of you fades into the light
and I, into the dark [3]

let me die in only your happiest of dreams

dear God I, never thought I'd
lose this much this time (this much this time)
it's a living hell tonight
for the hundredth fucking time

my god I, can't justify
these old fears despite
when worlds apart, one lone heart
still beats in unison with mine

I see your ghost
everytime my eyes close
(I feel your bones)
will you stay if I never wake?
I'd really like to know

you were the tourniquet that kept my heart in time
can't even bear the weight that's mine [4]
now I'd just rather not be alive

striped fingers crossed
a girl forever lost [5]

why do I get like this?

I am a self inflicting, life crippling, natural disaster
I'll find peace when I'm held only by the rafters

"Pathetic" [6]

vapid dreams, come calm every frayed nerve
soothe my broken heart to sleep
despite the pain I deserve
