a song about someone trying to process the grief of losing a loved one, unable to do so and ending up spiraling down to the point where they are on the brink of death themselves
(do you feel do you -)
(do you hurt do you -)
(is it real are you -)
(do you feel do you -)
(do you hurt do you -)
(is it real are you -)
It's like you're still here with me
Winds blow mold my face like your touch
I'd try ask "do you miss me?"
But you don't respond
How could you be gone
I'll close my eyes
And forget about the time
Watch as I cry
It's rain on my cheek
Connecting lines
Tracing paths in sand beneath my feet
You swore you'd stay
Where are you
Tear my heart out
Fall to the ground
Words pierce my skin
Tattered feelings
All this weight from my name
When you say it again
Words kiss me
But I still feel pain
Someone pinch me I’m still dreaming
Death's beside me I’m his protégé
Please speak softly words still hurt me
Defy nature I still hate her
Hate her
Stay here
Hate her
Take me later
But you'll stay there
If I don't call
Take a step back before you fall
Everything just hurts sometimes I
Wonder what I'll feel when you die
Hold your hand it's cold already
Didn't tell me that you left me
Beating heart as I grasp for air
Feel your pulse but it's still nowhere
Will you search for me when I join you
Try believe that nothing’s wrong
Hold your hand until you're gone
Hold your hand until you're
Do you feel me with you
Do you feel me kiss you
You - you - you
You were my everything
Take back time said I would not cry but I lied
Can you forgive me for the mistakes I made
Thought you would never leave what we had built up
But I was wrong I’m so dumb
See your face
I watch you fade
I'll always stay just to see you again someday
Do you see though the darkness I’m beside you
You're here I know you are
I won't forget your hope
It's all inside I won't leave till I die
Steps lead southward spiral downward
Heartbeats haunt me death still taunts me
I can still feel the past inside of my own heart
Fragile it breaks like glass let it escape time's grasp
Do you feel do you
Do you still -
Do you remember my name I'm -
Do you hurt do you
Hear my words
Is it real are you
Still there
Do you feel do you hurt is it real now
Cause I know that you're gone but I'll still ask "do you miss me?"
Do you feel do you hurt is it real now
When you don't respond I'll hold on
For you
Talk I need to hear your voice your words surround me
Embrace me with the things you could say but I can't hear you
Call out to me but we'll still just sit in silence
Do you feel my hands
I just want you back
Cause I loved you
