Strung by vein to running mouth
Your whispers are the catalyst
Somebody please breathe lies
My blood's not thick enough
I can't hear my heart beat when you shut up (Shut the fuck up)

Still waiting for last rites
Still waiting on a goodbye kiss
To sever the dead flesh
And walk away a part of you

Please don't tell me
You're useless with threaded lip
My hands went numb
To feel like you

I should have known you were no angel
By the way you said my name
I'm running out of
Perfect moments
I've grown tired of
Clotting the blood

To whom it may concern
You'll never keep my
Scars from healing
You'll never leave my bridges burning
Consciousness
Comes and goes
Like the routine
Of three lost words

Lovers lay dead, lovers
Lovers lay dead
Lovers lay dead, lovers
Lovers lay dead

And when you're bound and gagged
I defy you
To define me
I defy you
To define me
I defy you
To define me

It's the only way
To feel like I'm still breathing

I long for fresh air
Cleansed of sedition
The waters listen
Closer that I tell them everything
Then take a deep breath
