Myself

[Verse 1]
You were dancing for years on the edge of that cliff
I was squirming in bed with the sheets in my grip
You were praising the poison they taught you to sip
I was endlessly helpless while watching you slip

I the shiver up your spine
You're the quiver on my lips
I'm the rivers in your eyes
You're the pain in my ribs
When we went out of sync and abandoned the ship
The mercy had drowned, I was senselessly ripped

No I'm starting to drift as emotions are shifting
They deepen the void just to widen the rift
Cause the trick is to trip on the swing of your hips
Though my demon's impatient, my angels are swift

The girl is the test but the lady's the gift
So the boy will demand, but the man will resist
I'm lowering my gaze so the veil can be lifted
To grant me a dance to the pulse of that wrist

[Hook]
Do you want to know
What I saw inside your soul?
You're shivering cold
Just break out that world
Cause I can't watch you fall

[Verse 2]
I'm living to listen, you're dying to speak
We're reversing the roles cause the will is too weak
I'll only pose the questions if you take the leap
But I'll only find the answers that you dare to seek

The mountain you give me, I'll climb to the peak
While ignoring your warnings cause I like it sleep
You can tend to my wounds, or leave me to bleed
Just don't ask me to stay - you're too precious to plead

I'll be dodging the serpents beginning to creep
And disturbing the vultures pretending to sleep
You can hide in my night while we dream on repeat
And I'll show you the path through the lies and deceit

The monster that haunts us, I aim to defeat
To retrieve all the treasures you're frightened to keep
Whether I smile at your face, or drop at your feet
Its love that I saw, so I know what I'll reap

[Hook]
Do you want to know
What I saw inside your soul?
You're shivering cold
Just break out that world
Cause I can't watch you fall
