Leave me where you found me
With the arms of the darkness surrounding, around me
Throw dirt in my eyes and try convincing me
My love is blind
I lost you in the rubble like a diamond to the rough
Or a face beneath the stubble when the times are tending tough
I'm giving up, on giving up
Here we lay to rest a younger man than the one I now am
I now am half the one he was when I smothered him beneath my skin
Curse my fickle heart, my stubborn ways, my foolish pride
Wondering if ever there a better way to live or least some better way to die
Today is the first day of the rest of my life
Today is the first day of the rest of my life
I'm learning how to die
I set my sails for safer waters, I left my love for higher ground, don't look down
I am watching from above, you sinking like a stone
I let you drown, I let you drown
Down on luck like a sinner feeling sorry for myself
Preacher man says if I'll be damned you're going straight to hell
Your god don't love you anymore
My god, don't you love me anymore
I am feeling I'm not where I am going
I am feeling I'm not where I am going
I am feeling I'm not where I am going
Or what I am going to become
The air is static in the attic where the ghosts of our past live, they are rust and bone, rust and bone
I still think of you out of habit like some kind of madness, but I am letting go, I'm letting go
Of all my reasons for fear of failure, my demons beneath me screaming let me out, let me out
But I'm buried beneath the covers with the ghosts of my lovers thinking never or now, never or now
I'm losing sleep, I lost you once, I wont lose you now again
I'll scream and shout till my lungs give out, till the blood runs cold beneath the skin
Forever my love
Forever my love
Forever my love
Forever my friend
