Take Breath - Exhume Me lyrics

Artist: Take Breath

album: The Hell in All I Held Too Close


You're all just skeletons with saccharine voices
Regurgitating sentiments from eating corpses
Dead eyes and silhouette skin
Masquerading as living things
Dressed up as secrets that we couldn't hope to keep
I loved you at your darkest, and still you turned to leave
Now this heart that once so boldly adorned my sleeve
Just drags behind me on a tattered leash
This love was buried by our coffin nail tongues
But we didn't need to see it die so young
I'd do anything to see this all preserved
Even if it hurts
I set fire to keep you safe, as I promised I would
Now I'm measured by my failures, love misunderstood
"Until the end, my sweetest friend"
All the kinder things you said
But those words die in your throat
Like that love of mine you stole
This love was buried by our coffin nail tongues
But we didn't need to see it die so young
I'd do anything to keep this all preserved
Even if it hurts
I'm begging for mercy
Exhume me from this grave we dug my strength alone is
Not enough to lift the weight of punishment
This hell I live
Will not relent this swift descent is all
That's left for
Me to feel since you spun your heels and turned
This is all you'll ever be (a memory) just forgotten
This is all we'll ever be (unhappy) and unforgiving
Through clenched teeth and tears you choked
It's not making me happy, anymore
Happy, you never were
You couldn't cut a smile out of her
