Lyrics
Gehenna
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.
Do you believe? Do you fade like a dream?
Let me hear you breathe
Let me watch as you sleep
The sparrow's eyes
Promises shift into judgments
I cannot deny that you were designed for my punishments
The blood and the body
Control the cut so it's seamless
Show me your heart
Show me the way to complete this
Tethered
To a scene I
Treasure
Can you help me? I
Sever
God it's perfect, it's
Never
Really perfect
Now I can finally be myself
'Cause I don't want to be myself
Free my severed heart, give me you
I want it (I don't want to be myself)
I cannot maintain
A semblance of normal anymore
I'd rather feel pain than try to fit in with you anymore
I'll throw it all away, like everybody else
I can finally be myself
'Cause I don't want to be myself
Free my severed heart, give me you
I want it (I don't want to be myself)
