lyrics

Tie me down—watch all my problems grow. Break the door—invade and call my head your home. Wear a mask—tell me why we’re all alone. Accept my sins. Whisper softly, “I am here. I will shoulder all your pain. Break my bones, and know my heart is yours alone. Come to me and I will hide you from the sea.” Lie to me—all I need is a pretense. (Let me go. Fix the walls. Be yourself. Tear me down. Lie to me. Rip my flesh. Drain my blood. Hear my voice.) Your eyes—your eyes are telling me lies, and I don’t know if I’m ready to listen. So, wash me away—you’re not the anchor I’ve been looking for. Wash me away before I’m caught by obsession. Passion sinks—throw it down and drop the bombs. Watch it disappear. Your eyes are oceans and they’re drowning me, drowning me. Addiction builds—sink the ship before the crash. Light me up and try to quell the fires raging through my bones. Watch me burn away. Nothing you can do will help me. Scream—I crave your name. Vanish before you can trap me.Your eyes—your eyes are telling me lies, and I don’t know if I’m ready to listen. So, wash me away—you’re not the anchor I’ve been looking for. Wash me away before I’m caught by obsession. Say my name. It sounds so good when it leaves your tongue. Sending shivers down my spine, indebted to everything you’ve never said. We are living colours meant to mix and create something beautiful. But, we break at the water’s surface. We drown in the light.We drown in the light. We’ve run out of time. My life is at the surface. I’ve opened my eyes, but nobody was there. (This isn’t right, this isn’t right. It’s not enough, it’s not enough. Take my hand, take my hand.) Catch me when I fall. I’m already entangled in you. Tell me one more lie. I’m obsessed with the feeling. (Let me go. Fix the walls. Be yourself. Tear me down. Lie to me. Rip my flesh. Drain my blood. Hear my voice.)We won’t end here. We can’t end here.
