Speak your name just one last time
Then proceed to bite through my tongue
Close my eyes
Sew them shut
Then burn your face in my mind
Â
Here in the night
Here in the dark
Stitches in my mind rip and tear apart
Leave me here undone
This, I see
This, I know:
This fight I’ll fight on my own
Â
This is a war of silence I keep losing
Despite my senses, I cannot stop caring
Â
The feel of thread behind my lids reminds me of when we were young
Scratch the walls
Bind my hands
And pray the night closes in
Â
Thoughts in my head
Cancer of the mind
Letting chaos in
Killing all it finds
Leave me here unwhole
This, I see
This, I know:
This fight I’ll fight on my own
Â
This is a war of silence I keep losing
Despite my senses, I cannot stop caring
Look to the light and slip into forever
Close your eyes and you’ll see the life I wanted
Â
Yours was the last face I saw before I lost my eyes
Yours was the last name I said before I gave up my voice
Yours were the last words I thought before I lost my mind
Yours was the last life I took before I took my own
Â
Lost my eyes to make my point
And yet I still feel unfulfilled
I can’t speak
I can’t think without a fatal result
Â
Two becoming one
One becoming two
You make me hate everything I do
But I will persist
This, I see
This, I know:
This fight I’ll fight on my own
Â
This is a war of silence I keep losing
Despite my senses, I cannot stop caring
Look to the light and slip into forever
Close your eyes and you’ll see the life I wanted
