do not speak of freedom when i am suffocating
on the chemicals of such a deadly shock
i can't breathe for the weight of it all
pressing down...bending in...crushing out
a flame i thought would burn forever
do not hasten to bury what lived but a smile ago
i will drown in my own heated blood
i can't swim for your anchor so heavy
and your surface is beyond my grasp
nothing flickers in the eyes that have touched my soul
and now i know you will watch me drown
do not float away on hazy detachment
i haven't seen your practiced script; i have no lines
and i'm so terrified of this darkness i must face alone
you are dripping the stages of grief
on each splintered fragment of my open heart
on the chemicals of such a deadly shock
i can't breathe for the weight of it all
pressing down...bending in...crushing out
a flame i thought would burn forever
do not hasten to bury what lived but a smile ago
i will drown in my own heated blood
i can't swim for your anchor so heavy
and your surface is beyond my grasp
nothing flickers in the eyes that have touched my soul
and now i know you will watch me drown
do not float away on hazy detachment
i haven't seen your practiced script; i have no lines
and i'm so terrified of this darkness i must face alone
you are dripping the stages of grief
on each splintered fragment of my open heart
