Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue

thought I heard you talking softly

I turned

Waste away

I'm crawling blind

Hollowed by what I left inside

For you, just you

I'm caught

Knocked off my feet

The earth moved beneath

The edge of a dream and a nightmare

Open

You never go

You're always here

Beneath my skin

I cannot run away

Fading slowly

Give it all to you

Reaching as I fall

It's already over,

You've stripped me down, the layers fall like rain

It's over now, just innocence and instinct still remain

You watched me while I slowly disappeared

I reached

Time

It's eating me alive

Unable to rewind

Sink deeper while I'm climbing

Never

And this is how it feels when I ignore the words you spoke to me

And this is where I lose

Enemy, familiar friend

My beginning and my end.

Knowing truth, whispering lies

And it hurts

I should have seen those signs all around me

But I was comfortable inside these wounds

So go ahead

You never go

Your always here (suffocating me)

Under my skin

I cannot run away

Fading slowly

I'd give it all to you

Letting go of me

Reaching
