lyrics

I have nourished my demons and this fire I am lost love, like water filling lungs Colours on her skin are bruising black and blue The shoreline grew foul and drowned in the dreams of the young She is so flawless, her mouth barely moves There are no words for these truths If only you knew, the lengths I go to make you mine, by drowning your horsesIn this dank town, and in my putrid house These bowels of failure, the worst part of being alone Wishing for my constant piece of home Something wicked this way comes of swill and pills and gutter rot I'm choking on grief, you're begging for sleep When men are monsters, they pray for times like these Tore your name from my veins I give you one word, forgiveness
