Ribcage - Unapologetic Or Sympathetic - Chapter 3
Subsiding from the morning’s light,
I can’t see the hopes of Tomorrow
I am dealing with stress on a high level, but I’ll stay with you tonight
And wrap you up with adorned glory and put out the fire of sorrow,
Giving us (a heavy load of dread…)x2
I dropped dead (I dropped dead)
Where’s my head!?
Don't strangle me with your tainted love…please see what hope brings
Don't tangle me up with your heartless hatred
"Don't move a muscle,” she whispers to me as pleasant as a fluttering dove wings
I’ll try to put all of my distrust and apprehension to bed
In the mirror, I drink in my insecurities
(I’m trapped inside your ribcage) x2
Tragedy brews in my blood, there’s no where to hide
I am crucified by your absence of love…
Where’s the love? Buried up above?
Buried up above? (whisper: above…x3)
(I’m trapped inside your ribcage!!!!)
Don’t blink and bite the bullet (Oooh! Oh oh oh oh yeah)
Bite the bullet
See right through it
See right through my pain
Dripping endlessly like acid rain,
Scorching my skin aflame
(Feelin’ this shame x2) without a name
I’m trapped inside your ribcage
You’ll see my despair –
The throbbing heart can’t bear
The thought of losing you again
(I’m trapped inside your ribcage)
I’ll remain unapologetic
Until you rescue me from my demise,
That would be so…mesmeric
Apologies accepted? Light up your wick!
We will hold up our candles (in a chorus of joy x2)
I'm guilty for being so unapologetic
I'll try to be more sympathetic
I’m more than happy to see you shine
Shine effortlessly in the moonlight
I wish you were mine, which would be mighty fine
Move forward and walk the road of recovery
I’ll scare away the horrifying night
(The spooky night…devouring the light)
Fear not the arrows, flying in all directions
In the dead of night
Let go of anguish…let go of the past infections
Or you’ll lose touch of delight
And you’ll lose grip of His overflowing might
I think I’m lost in your paradise
Where you and I used to dwell in mirth
Lost, but never found - I’m living a hell on Earth
I’m that bothersome fly that swarms around you – (something you should despise) x2
I’ll erase the bad days and replace them with the good
I would do anything for you…
I would walk on hot coals for you…
If I had the guts, I would go for it!
Our love is a gold nugget to discover in the soil
You’re an apple to my eye,
I will be your shield in battle, you anoint me with olive oil~~~
I won’t let you pass away in the dust
Our love is a sacred, lucky oath – it will never rust
