shiver

There's a flicker in my mind Cold steel is tracing a line Every touch a gateway in Sending shivers down my spine There is blood beneath the blade But no cuts on my skin A phantom tide of crimson spill I refuse to let it in Beneath the blade I fade Into thoughts I can't evade Is this real or is this fake? All the fear it recreates What's left of me? I can't decide Is this the day I cross the line? It's not me (it's not me) But these thoughts they cut too deep Lock me away and tie my hands God I hope that this nightmare ends Is this real or is it fake? All the fear it recreates I'm holding the blade Can't let it go Does it want my blood or the one's I know? What's left of me? I can't decide Is this the day I cross the line? It's not me (it's not me) But these thoughts they cut too deep Lock me away and tie my hands God I hope that this nightmare ends I'm sinking slow To a hollow truth that I'll never show Beneath it all I've come to see The blade isn't real It's inside of me It's inside me What's left of me, you'll never see It's inside me It is inside me It's inside me It is inside me It is inside of me
