I told ambitious lies
&
Dreams of stories from past lives

Breathed out months ago
In the moths wing down below

From here to eternity

All will be remedied in remembrance

If I could just remember
how it went again
things would be different and
I could go back to the way things were and
then it may be quite possible to
breathe again, breathe again; maybe quite possible to breathe again, breathe again

I’ve been living in sin and I can’t quite keep up with what I’ve been living in
All this momentum is keeping me thin
Drinking again - still drunk and I’m not giving a **** about you or us

Watch me spin

Out of control
Out of control

Into your arms
Of sweet release and emptiness
The emptiness is eating my skin
Eating away at my better half

Let me loose so I can begin to sin again
