Lyrics
Anxious
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Tear into silence, my ears begin to ring
Begin to ring in the new sound anxiously
Oh, I am anxious and aching, breathing the burning air
Caring for something that is not there
Knowing what's fated, begin my fatal flight
Flying obscenely into the light
But the light will evade me to bring down punishment
Punishing soundly it lets me live
Swing the serenade (I heard it swing)
Swing love down and find the saddest song
I heard you swing the promises (you'll watch me swing now)
Swing love now and choke what we've become
Black without blindness, my eyes begin to sting
As my lips part to poison, sweet poisoning
Oh god, I feel like I'm dying. I've found death finally
And it feels like heaven, I'll never reach
Swing the serenade (I heard it swing)
Swing love down and find the saddest song
I heard you swing the promises (you'll watch me swing now)
Swing love now and choke what we've become
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Turn it down
Drown it slowly
Is it off? I'm still listening
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Turn it down
Drown it slowly
Is it off? I'm still listening
Swing the serenade (I heard it swing)
Swing love down and find the saddest song
I heard you swing the promises (you'll watch me swing now)
Swing love now and choke what we've become
(I'll bite your lips though I know better than this)
(This is a death I cant resist)
