Extract
The cicadas scream outside my bedroom and never let me sleep
And in the noise I hear your name and wonder if they sing for me
And all the books upon my shelf remind me of the words I smelt
So I can craft this blade of hopelessness and carve them on myself
So hold on I'm almost there
and I swear the pain is fleeting
All that I need is a little more time
if you can't give me that, I'll lay down to die so
Hold me down or I will drown
myself in all of these feelings
Don't let me go 'til I've made up my mind
I know you aren't the one
that made desire subside
Will you hear my song as I come undone and confess my sins on stage
and will the sentiment of all of this will it convince you to stay
And when you leave will you breathe easier
knowing you won't be disturbed
'Cause I will wait here for you patiently
Though I know you won't return
So hold on I'm almost there
and I swear the pain is fleeting
All that I need is a little more time
if you can't give me that, I'll lay down to die so
Hold me down or I will drown
myself in all of these feelings
Don't let me go 'til I've made up my mind
I know you aren't the one
that made desire subside
And in the noise I hear your name and wonder if they sing for me
And all the books upon my shelf remind me of the words I smelt
So I can craft this blade of hopelessness and carve them on myself
So hold on I'm almost there
and I swear the pain is fleeting
All that I need is a little more time
if you can't give me that, I'll lay down to die so
Hold me down or I will drown
myself in all of these feelings
Don't let me go 'til I've made up my mind
I know you aren't the one
that made desire subside
Will you hear my song as I come undone and confess my sins on stage
and will the sentiment of all of this will it convince you to stay
And when you leave will you breathe easier
knowing you won't be disturbed
'Cause I will wait here for you patiently
Though I know you won't return
So hold on I'm almost there
and I swear the pain is fleeting
All that I need is a little more time
if you can't give me that, I'll lay down to die so
Hold me down or I will drown
myself in all of these feelings
Don't let me go 'til I've made up my mind
I know you aren't the one
that made desire subside
