fading away from you
slowly drifting into the abyss of lonely self reflection
you hide your affection too well
i guess i've shown my cards too soon
but too late for you to realize
the depths to which i've been stranded
lost at the bottom
of the bathtub
of your ocean
i can't seem to find enough oxygen
in my love for you
you make me weak
my knees crumble
my head falls for your halo
i am the demon you'd rather keep away'
but you keep peeking
through the keyhole of my suppressed existence
i can only wait for so long
before i perish for good
i have lost myself in you
the me i showed got translated as someone
you don't seem to like
not torn apart from the ideal
but not trying to be a mirror anymore
i have been taken adrift
you have messed me up
your time play seems strange to me
you take me back in time
just to show me
your power over passion

just to show me
your power over passion
be good but not too good
