Stay With Us
your heart wore my eyes
and my eyes were a gaping wound
December is passing
Remember when autumn came too soon
I remember the lashings
all the forfeits that made you wanna cash in
and we break down walls
when we cry
And we're taken for a fall
Everyday we die
and we burn bridges
Just to suit our lies
For these reasons we strive
Do or die
But somewhere they're seeking
Everything you felt
I noticed your eye lids
And all the matter they held
Admist all of our triumphs
we failed to see you through
and we break down walls
when we cry
And we're taken for a fall
Everyday we die
and we burn bridges
Just to suit our lies
For these reasons we strive
Do or die
And the past is always reaching
reaching for you
In and out of his grasp
you slither about
silence was a fragrance
like the auburn that drifted
from you mouth
"i don't know what the pressure's about
when depressions in route
there's just no room to forgive you
and i don't know how"
