I know you're with me
It burns my hands as I write
And I will stay at your faith
You beg, you're losing your mind
And if it kills me
I'll write the words in my death
I am so set in stone and buried under your chest
I know you're with me
It burns my hands as I write
And I will stay at your faith
You beg you're losing your mind
And if it kills me
I'll write the words in my death
I am so set in stone and buried under your chest
And please forgive me I beg
I'm trembling at the thought of you again
And on the day you forgot that I'm still here
I might hate myself now
I swear you said I'd be somebody else
And I'm the way you forgot that I'm still here
It doesn't matter what I say
You're the heart that's in me?
I guess I was never there
How you sang for me to disappear?
I guess I was never there
How you sang for me to disappear
I am the way you're forgetting me
It doesnt matter what I say
But I hope its in me
Sing
And I am here
Sing
And I am here
Lose me
It sounds sweeter
You sing
And I am here
Lose me
It sounds sweeter
I got myself in the well
I know you're with me
It burns my hands as I write
And I will stay at your faith
You beg, you're losing your mind
If it kills me I'll write the words in my death
I am so set in stone I'm buried under your chest
And you sing
And I'm here
Lose me
It sounds sweeter
And you sing
And I'm here
And lose me
It sounds sweeter
