I lit the match with shaking hands Then prayed the fire wouldn't burn too long A choir of everything I did wrong I kissed the blade I swore I'd throw away Promised you light, but fed you gray I loved my wounds like they were gold But now I bury what I can't hold I drink the venom dressed in honey A requiem still sings for me The shattered truth turns into silence And shadows write the end for me I stood in silence at the edge again The fall looked softer than the climb I broke the glass I used to breathe through And bled out everything I used to believe So here's the end, no curtain call Just ashes whispering through the hall If I'm the ghost inside this skin Let this be the breath that starts again I drink the venom dressed in honey A requiem still sings for me The shattered truth turns into silence And shadows write the end for me I drink the venom dressed in honey A requiem still sings for me The shattered truth turns into silence And shadows write the end for me
