What If I Burn

I don't know

If I'm conscious enough to feel the end of the rope

Emotionally devoid, incapable of hope, I don't know

I don't know

I've been watching the water creep in through the door

As deep as my misery, it covers the floor

So I just float here, timeless, I am restored

Shedding the skin you swore I once wore, I now know

So leave on a light, hide your dark inside

Though it takes hold, leaves you wide-eyed

Aren't you tired of feeling lost?

What if I, what if I burn?

Forced to breathe you in, my carcinogen

As we're made, we leave with nothing

One fragile moment for us

What if I, what if I burn?

Burn into nothing

We change our form

As ash I watch us fall, I watch us fall

Fall into their arms

And without your light I find

We're washed clean of our past

I'm the fortunate one that this darkness is better than lies

I've been sitting on a throne that was forged of their bones

So desperately fearful of being alone

I'd rather rule their corpses, devoid of a soul

Than be screaming in darkness, turning to stone, I don't know

If I burn

Does it show you the damn that I'm worth?

'Cause as far as I see

It makes no difference

It makes no difference

So leave on a light, hide your dark inside

I know it takes hold, leaves you wide-eyed

Aren't you tired of feeling lost?

What if I, what if I burn?

Forced to breathe you in, my carcinogen

As we're made, we leave with nothing

One fragile moment for us

What if I, what if I

Fall into their arms

What if I, what if I burn?

And we're washed clean of our past?

What if I, what if I

Fall into their arms

What if I, what if I burn?

And we're washed clean of our past?

I'm the fortunate one that this darkness is better than lies
