My Frailty

I remember your taste

You're the life I gave away

Failure wrapped around my neck

You're the ghost that held me back

Now I am letting go

Drowning myself in the frozen waters

I feel the words escaping

They break from my thoughts

and disappear from my mouth

They leave behind a taste

The taste of failure

So familiar it reminds me of you

Don't say you'll save my life

I never asked you for anything

But you wanted more

Drowning in your frozen waters

I was sinking, you were my frailty

Drowning in your frozen waters

Don't you say that you'll save my life

I'm vanishing

I'm giving up on myself

Closing my eyes forever

Throw my body into the spinning and twisting

I bend into something else

A catastrophe

A murderer of my hopes and dreams

This is not my life

When winter ends

my new life begins

Bend and break

In pieces I was for you

You were my frailty

Don't say you'll save my fucking life
