You keep me locked away, I keep you locked away in return.
It's how I learned my suffering is none of your concern.
When I wonder where you came from, I already know where.
But I'm afraid if I looked inside myself I'd see nothing there.
Getting reacquainted with the real me and I'm terrified,
Part of me knew I could never handle looking deep inside.
My mind is a hellscape, my heart is where the blood dries.
My mind is where it all starts, my heart is where it all dies.
I survived the withdrawal. You are not so irresistable.
If there's nothing left to be taken from me, I am invincible.
I conceal your darkness, you conceal my light.
So my heart goes in cycles of day and night.
I've become a machine, repeating the same scene.
Like a recurring dream, I don't know what it means.
Getting reacquainted with the real me and I'm terrified,
Part of me knew I could never handle looking deep inside.
My love is like wine, you are too young to drink.
The thoughts in my mind would be poison to think.
I survived the withdrawal. You are not so irresistable.
If there's nothing left to be taken from me, I am invincible.
Burning all to the bone, to the edge of the unknown,
Committing sins I won't atone, proving God was wrong.
There is no more need for searching, I have found my home.
My true face will be revealed today, but to I and I alone.
