My heart is shifting,
Back to the one who's calling out to me,
She ties a tourniquet around my neck,
Cold embrace but warm caress,
My home was never so sweet.

And I will swallow,
Each pill she gives it helps to ease the pain,
She'll take a piece of me and eat it raw,
Been away for far too long,
Return the dirt to the weeds.

Though I'm down,
Down,
Down,
It picks her up,
Up,
Up,
I want it now,
Now,
Now,
I'm out of luck,
Luck,
Luck.

What have you done to comfort me?
What have you done but make me bleed?
You've come so close to burying me,
My one and only,
My emptiness.

My eyes are open,
But she won't let me go so easily,
I cannot trust the words that come from my mouth,
Enemy from the inside out,
I'll learn to love my defeat.

I let you hold me down,
Let you restrain me,
I sink into the ground,
It overtakes me,
I've lost what you have found,
You slowly change me,
I will remove my crown,
Let you invade me.
