Death
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.
Can't sleep, I won't eat
You're perishing before me
I'm panicked and rot at the core
Your words, they still haunt me
Like shadows on the concrete
The pain spreads like vines in my bones
Don't tell me that you're gone far away like that
I thought the distance was a string that would lead us back
Now I'm in the middle contemplating what my fickle
Heart really gained from the way that I left it with you
Death has come, it knocks on my door like a stalker
Don't answer, answer
My ego won, I'd put the pieces back but I burned all my chances
Took our time for granted, oh
The knife keeps twisting
So much I'm regretting, oh
Next time, I'll listen
I hide in your corners, peak over your shoulders
It's strange how you're missing me now
Heart's breaking 'cause I'm gone far away like that
You thought the distance was a string that would lead us back
Now you're in the middle contemplating what your fickle
Heart really gained from the way that you left it with me
Death has come, it knocks on my door like a stalker
Don't answer, answer
My ego won, I'd put the pieces back but I burned all my chances
Took our time for granted, oh
The knife keeps twisting
So much I'm regretting, oh
Next time, I'll listen
