To Ashes

So hopeless
Limbless, floating slowly into death
Your eyes struck me, lashes soaked in blood
I’ll never give in to you
It’s the closest I’ve ever come
To living fantasy for the masochist in me
So I could scream in pain for love or be empty

At night I call for you
I remember your mouth forming the hate in my veins
And I have tried to leave you
And leave it all behind

And she would start with my nails
Remove all of my teeth so I can’t disagree
My tongue is shred to pieces, these lights grow low
I've thought it all through now
And all I see is her
Could I forgive myself such sacrifice?
I would give it all away just to know
What it’s like to be held

At night I call for you
I remember your mouth forming the hate in my veins
And I have tried to leave you
And leave it all behind
And leave you all behind
Safe from your grace

I will not follow your empty notions
Right through the lacerations you pierce with your unloving stare
Straight to the bone, so cold
Open up my eyes to see the prize at cost, you murderer
And teach me the depths; how we can be so low

Nowhere to run, at night I call for you
I remember your mouth forming the hate in my veins
Nowhere to hide, and I've tried to leave you
And leave you all behind

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Through a mouthful of blood I’m smiling
No place to go, it’s just what I like
Don't bother to help I’m fading
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Through a mouthful of blood I’m smiling
No place to go, it’s just what I like
Don't bother to help I’m fading
