My heart is shifting Back to the one who's calling out to me She ties a tourniquet around my neck Cold embrace but warm caress My home was never so sweet
And I will swallow Each pill she gives it helps to ease the pain She'll take a piece of me and eat it raw Been away for far too long Return the dirt to the weeds
Though I'm down Down Down It picks her up Up Up I want it now Now Now I'm out of luck Luck Luck
What have you done to comfort me? What have you done but make me bleed? You've come so close to burying me My one and only My emptiness
My eyes are open But she won't let me go so easily I cannot trust the words that come from my mouth Enemy from the inside out I'll learn to love my defeat
I let you hold me down Let you restrain me I sink into the ground It overtakes me I've lost what you have found You slowly change me I will remove my crown Let you invade me
