Burn me into my desolate grave
Brand me the sense to rest
As I crawl away into my shattered heart
Chewing on broken glass
I spit with bloody lips
Your wings touch my skin
But they scrape and bruise my flesh
Leaving me tattered and worn
Just rid of me as soon as you can
Like when the river breaks
Sending two streams piling over the sea
I am left to choose between you or me
I'm just a dying snowdrop
My ivory pedals fall one by one
Slowly melting me away into nothing
Snow falls to try to save me
But you have chosen my fate
You're a raven and I'm stuck in your talons
You soar high over the stars like an angel
While I soar right along with you, terrified of the fall
And the wind hisses your name
Bloody snakebite in my veins
Your venom seeps into my soul
Diseased and dismantled
I carry your skin for comfort
Predator versus prey
A doe can outrun a cougar
But never has a chance against a cheetah
Map of spider webs
Hanging in the balance
Feeling octavo creep over me
Teeth in my blood
Is there any trace of a tie?
I can't go on with it this way
I'm slowly fading into the dew
But that will leave me surrendered to you
Every predation I am the casualty
I have but one enemy
But the enemy is within myself
You are a virus
And I am infected
Your immortal ways destroy me
And I'll suffer until you die
