Strangled By The Thought

Weak for lack of oxygen

Strangled by the thought

Promise you'll remember when I'm gone

Sleep is mostly optional

Trace lines around my heart

Steal the only breath from my lungs

But if I had your faith

I'd be fearless

But until that day

I'm envious

Miles and miles that distance us

Like meters on a map

Trace lines that only translate to a day

But if you're awake

Tell me it's safe

If you ask me to stay

Then I'll stay

Don't leave me here when I'm bleeding

When I'm fading but I'm true

It's tempting to stop everything

When I'm pouring out to you

So take everything, take it all from me

Because all I want is you
