Wax Romantic

I bleed the galaxy, my heart, it feels the atrophy
I never thought, I never thought
I never thought, I never thought that I could take this
I'm growing restless every day
I wish that there was a way
And when the curtain falls, the players leave the stage
(Into the streets) where those like me will rot and bleed
Where those like me will rot and bleed

This is the part where I apologise for everything I've done
And when my world is torn asunder (asunder)
Will you go underneath with me?
I will not forget

Lately, I've been waiting for the sky to turn a certain shade of grey
So I can leave this world behind
And they won't mind (no, not at all)
I'm waiting for my curtain call
And after all (they'll thank me)

This is the part where I apologise for everything I've done
And when my world is torn asunder (asunder)
Will you go underneath with me? (Underneath with me)

Oh, I would realign the stars to spell your name
My broken heart still hangs on every word you say (on every word you say)
I hope to God that I'm okay
I will not for-, I will not forget (this was hopeless from the start)
Five for five, I can't move on from here

Reader, oh reader, it pains me to say
The ink on the pages, the blood in my veins
The story can't go on without you (the story can't go on without you)

Reader, oh reader, I'm slipping away
I'm losing the will to survive one more day
The story can't go on without you (the story can't go on without you)

Reader, oh reader, it pains me to say (the memories emerge from infected wounds)
The ink on my pages, the blood in my veins (to carry away all signs of emotion and life itself)
The story can't go on without you (as once the stars collapsed)
The story can't go on (now, so do I to bring about the end of our wonderful tragedy)

Reader, oh reader, I'm slipping away (the grand departure of my convictions and grief)
(I've been through hell) I'm losing the will to survive one more day (and now I'm waiting on high water to make me choose)
The story can't go on without you (to sink or swim, to beg for air)
The story can't go on (just like you once did)

My one regret was leaving you so soon (death - revive - live - survive)
My one regret was leaving you so soon (death - revive - live - Survive)
My one regret was leaving you so soon (death - revive - live - survive)
My one regret was leaving you so soon (death - revive - live - survive) was leaving you so soon

I'll grind my teeth until they're dust
My iron heart has turned to rust
And in the end, it has one home
Between these crooked, broken bones

This is the part where I apologise for everything I've done
And when my world is torn asunder
Will you go underneath with me?
Underneath with me!

This is the part where I apologise for everything I've done
And when my world is torn asunder
Will you go underneath with me?

Underneath with me!
Underneath with me!

I'd rather bury you alive than bear the burden that you keep
'Cause you're a poison in my veins
I'll never say surrender
