It only hurts when I breathe
The way your thorns cut into my skin
And when I think back hard enough, I can almost feel your love

Your pricks creep into me
Like a chill that washes over you way too soon
I haven't a way to fall
I'm stuck here in your grasp

Your venom should have sunk in
The scars on my wrists are only shadows
Of a love that once invaded my soul
Now I'm left rotting in my own blood
And choking on the glass you shoved down my throat

Like a spider you weave your way into my soul
Abrading and stitching into me
Capturing my heart
And eating it inside out

The tears I have cried weren't because of the pain
They were because of the fear
Your eyes used to be so pure
I bet that’s why you don't cry when you hurt me
Like you used to say you would

This trap I fell into
Was all too well planned
How was I to know after I got you it would be too late?
I wasn't ready for love when it began
You brought it onto me

The way your needles cut at my eyes
Send crimson to mix with my tears
The sound of your approach sends me into a coma
I'm actually losing my mind

This tangled web is matted with dew
The early morning sun is awake
Today is the day you plan to finish your job
I just hope you don't go for my heart again
Being immortal is not a good thing
When you as the prisoner are sentenced to die
Except it still only hurts when I breathe
