lyrics

For a lost sunken cause
My innocence died
So shriveled and gray
From the truth that I’ve lied

Fairy tales tell a story
Of a noble man
But the truth buries deep
By his own hand

Chorus:
Listen close my dearest friend
My body weeps for you
And drops to the ground
Bury my thoughts
Below the deep dark ocean
Be with me till the end

A severed lung
Leaves me grasping for air
And clutching my chest
As others watch
All they can do is stare

For my flaws do bear witness
To my liquid chastity
Drive a stake through their hearts
And watch them bleed

(Chorus)

Sail ahead of me
I’ll be just behind
You can be my rudder
And I can be your oar
Your compass is stronger than mine

My will is stronger than yours
Why do the treasures that I’ve lost
Weigh greater when gone
Why do they break my back
And make me stumble
They make me fall

A fortune teller could not
Try to read my fate
Not knowing how but for fear
Of knowing where it lay

(Chorus)

Careful my lover sweet
The waves they lap
They kiss my feet
The buildings fall
And the children cry
But if I ever don’t
Please let me die
