The Romance of Affliction (feat. If I Die First)

Shed your second skin

It was always too much for you

Let the poison in

Crave the pain and lose control

If the body aches

Your mind might drift away for a long time

Is it asking too much for one last taste when seeking shelter?

Will this last all night? (I won't make it through this time)

Pretend that nothing happened (When it called out so sweetly)

Will this last all night? (I've embraced the veil so)

Don't cry when I say

Angel, I don't hear you

Glistening, it's the same solace in my veins

The cherubs are singing, my vision is blurring

Oh, please take me on your wings

One last chance for us

To replace all the things that take hold

So survive, hold on 'til the end

Take it all back tonight

I never wished for you to see me like this

Sunk in the blissful agony

I won't make you choose

Don't give up

I can hear them calling me

I can hear them calling me home

Fly home like a wounded dove

The way you say goodnight

Oh, it takes the life from me

'Cause I'm tired of feeling useless

And I'm scared of doing this again

I've given all that was left of me

I can hear them calling me home

I've seen the pain in your eyes

Don't let me bring you down here too

It was always too much for you

You know we've tried everything

But I'm still lost at sea

It was always too much for you

You know we've tried everything

But I'm still lost at sea

It was always too much for you

You know we've tried everything

But I'm still lost at sea

It was always too much for you

You know we've tried everything

But I'm still lost at sea
