lyrics

She leaves a draft behind her when she turns her back on me,
but the abandonment's what helps me rest comfortably.
With every glare, it's like she sees the void within my soul.
She reposesses every inch, suffocating when she lets go.

Bound, by every bone.
Each lash is a reminder that
I'm not alone.
Her grip around my neck relieves me from my breath
A rush of ecstasy comes with the blood dripped down my chest.

Her toxic touch,
a necrotizing defect.
I fall apart,
crawling like an insect.

In hindsight, I kept her away.
That's all I had left that was keeping me sane.
I found her. All she had to say,
was to close my eyes, and give in to the pain.

Now, come back to me.
Home's where the heart is,
I need reconstructive surgery.
Grown attached to me,
a silhouette of torture,
shadows that will set me free.

Her toxic touch,
a necrotizing defect
I fall apart,
crawling like an insect.

Corrosive touch,
a necrotizing defect
Back to the start,
crawling like an insect.

In hindsight, I kept her away.
That's all I had left that was keeping me sane.
I found her. All she had to say,
was to close my eyes, and give in to the pain
