Do you rise in the dark Do you sink in the mud Does the air weigh you down Do you wish sometimes do you wish that you'd just drown I've been a liar, and you are much wiser But I'm trying to reach out to you And if you loathe me for all the things that I do Just know that I will always love you (Because you're my only one) Do the spirits help you forget about it all Do the embers make you feel good only for so long Do the ashes make your body wheeze and complain as it strains Trapped and smothered in a torturous state The strength of your heart that does not break From the weight of life that chokes you in its wake You are so brave, you are so brave Untie, untie this wretched knot Are you caught between the dark and the dawn Are you left with a blank canvas after all you've drawn Does your face stare back in the dead depths of the mirror Are you looking for an edge, a sharp edge that will cut it all away But it's only more pain, it's another part of you bleeding you away You don't look at me but I have two hands willing to help you Untie that wretched knot that's eating you away
