I swear it's getting harder even just to exhale.

I know what you want from me, you want someone to be your reflection, your bitter deception setting you free. So you take what you want, then leave.

Nothing else is quite the same as how I feel when I'm at your side.

Sulfur on your breath, granite in my chest, you won't ever have to talk about it, you'll never wanna talk about it.

Room feels like a meat freezer I dangle in like cold cuts.

Nobody told me I'd get tired of myself, when it all looks like heaven, but it feels like hell.

Now and then I notice you laughing, laughing at perfect death, then you change, suddenly hollow.

The truth is, I am ugly, l am inadequate, l am lost. I am no God.

Reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher.

You only drink the water when you think it's holy.

Teeth of God. Blood of man. I will be what I am.

No one's gonna save me from my memories.

It feels like falling into the deep, from somewhere way up over the peaks.

I told you, I can get it so right, even in the daylight, I can give you what you want.

No matter what is real, it seems that even in Arcadia you walk beside me still.

Is it going good in the garden?

You've got me talking in my sleep as if you're conquering my dreams.

Did I get this far for nothing, or are you the reward?

You were laid in verse, living on a promised word, I am the rose you relinquished again.

Now I know why I woke up here on the shoreline coughing up blood in the twilight, everything looks the same.

I must be someone new.

Come now, bite through these wires, I'm a waking hell and the gods grow tired.

For so long I have waited, so long that I almost became just a stoic statue, fit for nobody.

Are you trying to live like everything is a lesson to learn? Can you ever forgive yourself?

Just let me go or take me with you.

Don't you know, I can see it in you even now?

You make me wish I could disappear.

Will we remain stuck in the throat of gods? Will the pain stop if we go deeper? So let's get swallowed whole.

The perfect start to a perfect war, putting down the roses picking up the sword.

Fury too damn late, reason dislocates, and you'll never have to talk about it.

I've got a blood trail, red in the blue.

I come as a blade, a sacred guardian, so you keep me sharp and test my worth in blood.

It still makes my blood run thin to remember what you are to him, and I live like I've got missing limbs for you.

When the mouth of infinity buries its teeth in me, I'll smile through the agony for you.

Let the tides carry you back to me.

I asked and you answered, but you eat your words in frame.

I am broken into fractions, and I am driven to distraction.

I see in a different light the objects of my desire.

My insecurities surround me like lions in the den, and I feel like I'm losing touch with what I am again.

Seems your heart is locked up and I still get the combination wrong, or are you simply waiting to save your love for someone I am not?

Fall into your eyes like a grave.

Eternity will bring you near, I know you can see that you will be mine.

You make it more than I could ever feel before, and I am almost under.

They talk me through the damage, consequence and how it's a pain they know they don't understand.

When it rains, you don't take shelter, you don't take signs from God.

I made loving you a blood sport, I can't win. So let's play!

Hold me beneath the surface, deep into your love.

Oh, is that a glint in your eye? Is that a blade in your palm? Well, I am yours tonight, so will you lay in my arms?

Tonight, we're second-guessed again, let me wrap the chains, addicted to the pain.

Do you like the way it feels? Like fire from the heavens, tearing me asunder beside you.
