I yearn your touch the minute it's taken away.
But yet I stray
Emotions imprisoned - I've been torn before
Ripped apart into tiny pieces
The destruction of my paper ligaments
Seemed to be justice
I excreted nothing but hatefulness
You and I paint the perfect portrait
The embodiment of colliding souls
Yet I'm suffocating with this corset
I pull the strings tight till I'm cold -
Breathless. Filled with morbid
Thoughts
You brought me to life
My soul soars
To new heights containing no strife
Craving nothing but more
More of you till the afterlife
Does us part.
My past comes to haunt me
A constant reminder
Of the previous killing spree
It tries to slaughter
My heart and the love we
Share - you and I - I and you.
I seek to show you
The passion encaged within me
But it's lost in the maze I fell into.
Each time I let go of the cowardice
My heart turns blue
Sinking deeper - powerless.
Who's to say it won't be slain again - but this time
No potion to spare my grime.

To new heights containing no strife
Craving nothing but more

My past comes to haunt me
A constant reminder
Of the previous killing spree

My heart and the love we
Share - you and I - I and you.

But it's lost in the maze I fell into.
Each time I let go of the cowardice
My heart turns blue
Sinking deeper - powerless.
Who's to say it won't be slain again - but this time
No potion to spare my grime.
