The shadows of your body Reflect off the walls of my memory. My crimson hands, my old friend depression sitting down beside me In attempts to console me. But I still see you in everything I do I see you inside me even when I try to escape this living hell we all call home And all I ever want is you. All I ever need is you. But the flowers that once bloomed up my throat Now wilt at the absence of your touch And I've realized my only escape from the pain is the person who's escaped my grasp.

all i want.
The shadows of your body Reflect off the walls of my memory. My crimson hands, my old friend depression sitting down beside me In attempts to console me. But I still see you in everything I do I see you inside me even when I try to escape this living hell we all call home And all I ever want is you. All I ever need is you. But the flowers that once bloomed up my throat Now wilt at the absence of your touch And I've realized my only escape from the pain is the person who's escaped my grasp.
