[Part I: Elegy] We live as we dream So alone So alone Taking rich sips from a glass of blood wine From within the veins of a heart of darkness I am confined I fell from grace just to miss the arms waiting to catch me I slipped through time and egressed into a forlorn ethos The lotus I dream is now drenched in rain No longer of its opulent purple stain No longer of its opulent purple stain (Wake up) Wake up Wake up Is this but a dream? Liquidated melancholy flowing inside of me Pinching at my skin, but still loyal to the nightmare that I’m stuck in Writing scriptures of hatred about the ones I love How is this the person that I’ve become? (What have I become?) I learned to mourn when I learned to love A fragile gift on the wings of a dove The sun is cold forevermore (forevermore) I learned to mourn when I learned to love A fragile gift on the wings of a dove The sun is cold forevermore Forevermore It is foolish to resist the kiss of death [Part II: Diatribe] You swore You swore I was comfortably numb Break my heart for I held my tongue I trudged through crimson isles In constant envy of your bleeding smiles And I'll never forgive myself for those futile desires I was dying of thirst, and you fed me salt Now the flowers you returned, once vibrant, now rot You’re just a fucking snake Spitting words of venom Infecting those you love Enraging those who hate you You’re toxic and alone You sit upon a serpents throne But it’s my greatest shame I’m exactly the same A willful player in this devils game I learned to mourn when I learned to love A fragile gift on the wings of a dove The sun is cold forevermore (forevermore) We fell apart when we fell in love Two fragile souls dipped in a glass of blood The sun is cold forevermore Forevermore
