Gilded Shadow

Gilded shadow I can't hold your heart
Suffocate me in the name of art
Picked me up just to pick me apart
Stars are brighter living in the dark

Watching you run
So there's no price to pay
If you're good on your own
Why can't you stay that way?

Think you're the sun
Watch them revolve in pain
They made you a crown
Can't even hold your weight

How do I grieve
Someone I never knew?
Took me back to hell
Knowing what I'd been through

Fateful deceit
You'll never live in truth
You're trapped in your mess
That's why I pity you

gilded shadow I can't hold your heart
Suffocate me in the name of art
Picked me up just to pick me apart
Stars are brighter living in the dark

And there's beauty alone
Now your magic is gone
Was withdrawing for months
Not as hard to move on

Promised a change
Watched me bleed while I waited
Boy we were so happy
when I was sedated

I never count
As long as you're around
Split my knees in the gravel
To keep you off ground

How can I cry now?
There's nothing I've lost
But there's salt on my lips
Cus' of all that you're not

Gilded shadow I can't hold your heart
Suffocate me in the name of art
Picked me up just to pick me apart
Stars are brighter living in the dark

Gilded shadow I can't hold your heart
Suffocate me in the name of art
Picked me up just to pick me apart
Stars are brighter living in the dark
