So close yet so far away,

Bound to you so hard so I don’t stray

You’re burning me, my flesh to ashes with every gaze

Yet you’re the only light that can find its way in my maze

We hurt, we bleed

We pray ourselves out of this need

Yet every night we blindly take another leap

Wishing each other we can keep

Your breath around my neck

Ripping me to pieces making me sick

Your patient is what became of me

No medicine, no curse can break it free

An addict is what you created

Everything that I deeply hated

Fading within your waves, Drowning in your ocean

Never has death ever felt so in motion
