I still see you in the
Back of my head
I know you need me so
I'll carry you to bed
And as I lay you
Down to rest
I see you at your best
I see something new
Your gums bled
Self-joy and pride
I saw it when you smiled
And then I knew
You don't need me at all

Winter is over
Shed your thorns
Shed your fears Of falling underneath
Everyone's expectations
You still have a chance to bloom
Burden me
Plant yourself in my brain
Never let me have another
sane thought again
Let your roots grow down my spine
Build me in your image this time
Let the sun burn in your skin
Watch it burn the
Winter coat from your stem
I watched you grow into a
beautiful flower
I was the soil at your feet
I don't see you at all
And I've been too afraid to call
I see you in the shadows
I see you in my sheets
I see you under my eyelids
When I try to sleep
You haunt me
You're the disease I want
In my bloodstream
Burden me
Plant yourself in my brain
Never let me have another
Sane thought again
I watched your petals change
I watched you grow into
What you're meant to be
I watched your petals change
I watched you grow into
What isn't best for me

Buried, why did you bring it up
You are the salt inside my cuts
I'm not your enemy
No, I'm not anything
But you would point me out among an angry crowd
I'm not the pain you feel
Owner to no promises sealed
I'm just a broken shell necklace you found
We walked our seperate ways
No words, just swallowed pain
What changed
Why are you calling me
It's an empty bottle talking
I'm not your enemy
No, I'm not anything
But you would point me out among an angry crowd
I'm not the pain you feel
Owner to no promises sealed
I'm just a broken shell necklace you found
No sooner than
I reached out to help a friend
You're there again
You're there again
A snake in the grass
Just a ghost of my past
I can't comprehend
Your persistence is just a lack of tact and depth
You shackeled blame
To this dead body
And the ghost has risen

Somewhere
Under a willow tree the values you would speak
I've heard them breathe
Just down the road
You lost affinity for all that you believed
You're shaking leaves
You broke those ties
Live out your lies
Stuck out my neck
A guillotine of promises unkept
Came smashing down, and down, and down I drowned in blood
I wept under clouds of my past
I kept reaching for the hands that slipped my grasp
I'm done with this
Dead flies on shit
And all I feel is
This hatred for the things I didn't speak
The man I used to be
You broke those ties
Live out your lies
I'm done with this
Dead flies on shit
And all I feel is
This hatred for the times I didn't speak
The man I used to be
