Absinthe Roses

I'm breathing all that I can stand to breathe
And all I am is still nothing to see
All the consequences of a broken man
They scatter on the floor like grains of sand

So come breathe me in
Breathe me in, darling, breathe me in
Come breathe me in
Where you and I end and we begin

Out in the cold, I taste a bitter wind
Like absinthe roses come falling down again
Intoxicated by the scent of your roses and my regrets

So come drink me in
Drink me in, darling, drink me in
Come drink me in
And take me in again

And I'll scream your name
And we'll break like glass again
We'll bleed to break this falling world
And I'll dream that lonely dream again

Oh, come and breathe me in
Breathe me in, darling, breathe me in
Come and breathe me in
Breathe and taste the wind

And I'll scream your name
And we'll break like glass again
We'll bleed to break this falling world
And I'll dream a lonely dream again
And I'll scream your name
And we'll break like glass again
We'll bleed to break this falling world
And I'll dream a lonely dream again
