lyrics

Never left a mark
Where have your hands been?
Calloused where you touch me
Blistered it doesn’t mean anything, emotional hybrid
Come closer, come closer
Kill the feeling, I’m falling for you
I still feel you living

Where have your hands been?
Calloused where you touch me
Blistered it doesn’t mean anything
Tempting emotion from me
That may never mean anything
Except notes of illness
The best and the worst at once the same thing
Come closer, come closer
Kill the feeling, I’m falling for you
I still feel you living

He took something that wasn’t his
And I have to live with it
There’s method to a man
Bravado I understand but you melt to stone
And I’m forlorn when your tenderness is gone
Your tenderness is gone
Eyes fawn

And I’m guarded
I can’t accept your complement
I withdrew and withdrew
And haven’t seen myself since
A fast for no religion
I apologize a thousand times with these tears that never dry
I keep my smile a secret
You can’t claim this glory

Glittering in my bones like marrow
The beauty I can’t recognize
The beauty my own demise
Lost in my reflection
Another disenchantment for the jadedness
A paradise forbidden

Glittering in my bones like marrow
The beauty I can’t recognize
The beauty my own demise
Lost in my reflection
I seek a killing truth
Holding up the sky
Pretty helps to imprison self
The castle was a jail
Lies your fairytales

He took something that wasn’t his
And I have to live with it
There’s method to a man
Bravado I understand but you melt to stone
And I’m forlorn when your tenderness is gone
Your tenderness is gone
Eyes fawn

And I’m guarded
I can’t accept your complement
I withdrew and withdrew
And haven’t seen myself since
A fast for no religion
I apologize a thousand times with these tears that never dry
I keep my smile a secret
Somewhere in the passion I lost it
Crowded in my head
The definition to this umbrella of sorrow
Glittering in my bones like marrow

A fast for no religion
I apologize a thousand times with these tears that never dry
I keep my smile a secret
You can’t claim this glory
Cause you can’t count my scars
Not for the faint of heart
Cause you can’t count my scars
Not for the faint of heart
I am home with blood and smoke
