Dead Ties

I feel your eyes on me (Every sharp glance)

Everything that you say

I feel you eat at me

All these thoughts trying, here to devour

I feel this all too much, I feel you eat at me.

With every step of her own, and every blow from the clock's hands

The devil wears at her bones and everything she calls her own.

And I know

All the things that I know you never meant to say

Keep me home 'cause I know you'll never be content

Until this all is over.

I find these pleas unheard and all that’s me

Looking for your ghost.

This disconnect has burned into apathy

Render me self-sustaining

I'm hoping for your ghosts, haunting

And I know

All the things that I know you never meant to say

Keep me home 'cause I know you'll never be content

Until you fall, until this all blows over

Until you fall, until this all is over.

I feel your eyes on me (Every sharp glance)

I feel alive when I live in my mind

We can live like fools together

I feel alive, surround me with your lies

We will live like fools together

When will I open up?

Is this meant to be?

I cannot live like this, how it's supposed to be

Left aside, broken
