The North Wind

Lyrics

[Verse] Procession of questions Confession: I was less than the devil you invented Septic, susceptible Why pretend to know? We learn more when a warm heart Turns cold So I let the darkness flow Made it a part of my own Alone I slowly transformed Crawled into a walk Approaching closer to the door Heard the knock, but didn't open it You chose the road less fortunate We'd go to war for many reasons None of them the least bit easy to understand Reflecting on the past You tried to fit me in your gaps I was exhalted to your highest honor Yeah, as a hangman Climbing to fall farther How else would I untie the rope? Asphyxiating my throat It became erotic Strangulation no longer symbolic Thoughts of your mother and father Prolonging the promise of stopping this haunted nightmare Fear would hold you tight bedside And watch me while you cried your tears It was not fair I was the fog in the mirror Wanted to be there, honest and sincere Not to play the role of your pallbearer Truly the closest I would ever hold you Genuinely But only while the pendulum swings The venomous sting of reality Set itself in to do battle with me Injecting a shadow Cast upon my masterpiece I doubted release Escape was momentary Emboweled our dreams Another soul to bury Barely As I crept through the cemetery Within moments of my second step Your ghost has strangely saw me staring You were on to me This was obvious Both of us trapped Wandering yet coffinless This is why I could never leave Somebody died, but was it you or me? Neither one of us are really free Instead confined to miserable conditions No help in sight The hell inside Our lonely physician Predisposed to premonition The reason why I smile at your image Every night it's so nice of you to visit I can see you in the distance I was always watching It's just that I was listening For your heart instead of logic I've got a problem scarring deep I'm sorry I'm honestly morbid And constantly falling In making up for it We all must bleed before letting go I tasted you Soft I ate Like parts of me were made to chew Between my teeth I tried to hold our truth So I pried you loose Inch by inch Tooth by tooth We were both too abusive Love was only for control Really, like two cannibals are compatible We weren't full on feeding night You weren't feeling right Your ego needed a new soul I caught you eating mine Gnawing through my bones You wanted more to stay alive I auditioned for the role But the movie came to life Couldn't keep them seperate I was desperate Found in doubt a weak intent Was second guessing Every message now I let you live as an angel Though your home was heavenless The subtle wind from the north Begins my severance Your medicine was slow But overtook my nervous fluid Electrically our love was lost And looked upon as conduit For there were much greater forces You enjoyed to hide Overly proud to cut my silver cord Leaving me behind I no longer try to find a reason And I'll never be okay That's why those roses wilted When you left them at my grave Sent me spiraling to depths I now admire I don't know if I should thank you, hate you Replace or hang you Higher Balance the equation Or forget it altogether? Erase mistakes Reject the pictures And not send this letter? You presented me, my fall My friend, we found the end It was in that hour it began
