with a heart made up as a sewn-together man,
i let go of the beauty, let go of your hand.
the storm of your tears seems so peaceful, when directly underneath
i'll run out the fields and turn to stone,
by the strike upon my cheeks.
i will never hurt you again.
i fall asleep and perish beside you.
i'd say ''good-bye", i know you'd never want to.
but understand, i'm less and worse than every man.
even in the same room, i'm killing you.
i seem to make myself forget,
you once rendered your heart, so bloody and so wet.
and in my arms it seemed to smoke,
like mystic streams in the morning.
the fumes made me begin to choke,
take it back before i hurt you again.
i fall asleep and perish beside you.
i'd say "good-bye" but i know you'd never want to.
but understand, i'm less than every man.
i'm nothing worth keeping, so please find something new.
another morning. after this i never thought i'd wake. but it seems our love will never break. i am the curse that caught you in forever. destined to hurt you for ever and ever and ever and ever...
i fall asleep and perish beside you,
i'd say "good-bye" but i know you'd never want to.
but understand, i'm less and worse than every man.
even these words, i'm sure are killing you.
