I've seen all the stars align,

They collide in sparks as they fly,

The sparks ignite, they testify,

A broken soul now asking why,

Why must it crave a reply?

When all that's left is just a sigh.

'Til the dark claims all I've been,

I'll keep the sink or swim

I justify the lack of love with lies,

You switch your faces side by side,

A bulletproof heart that comes ignited,

But the link to my lungs feels overtired.

You drag me every time to the lion's den,

A den full of infinite pits,

It's called “my head”.

I hold onto what I wish to let go,

A bitter bite I can't ignore,

The feeling of it, pure sour.

'Til the dark claims all I've been,

I'll keep the sink or swim

I justify the lack of love with lies,

You switch your faces side by side,

A heart once strong, now wrapped in fire,

But the link to my lungs feels overtired.

How do I say this?

But so you know,

I won’t let you flow,

I’ll keep you at bay.

I do what I don’t understand,

But I begin to take a stand.

So tell me, what’s next on the row?

What will break the chains I face?

'Til the dark claims all I've been,

I'll keep the sink or swim

I justify the lack of love with lies,

You changed your mask without a sound,

A heart once whole, now torn in ashes,

But the wish to repent feels so overtired.
