Half Me

is there something more?
is there something more beyond what I can see?
stay with me through this, stay with me
a terror that lives and breathes, a whisper behind my teeth
those who mean the most have turned their back on me
but this time I‘m not taking the blame
a devil on a chain bearing control over me
reality is slipping away
why don’t you feel the same?
haunting, sew my eyes and stitch them shut
drowning, there’s no hand to pull me up
you are the gift that keeps on giving
i am the burden that keeps on living
a ghost condemned to give in
i feel a part of me is missing
i can’t relate anymore, suffering behind closed doors
everything revolves around the fact i’m not the person that i used to be
giving it up to let the silent speak; this is another half of me
pulling my strings, awake in my sleep
is this all a dream?
the terror that lives and breathes
the whisper behind my teeth
let me sleep, let me sleep
the sour taste of you still lays underneath
my tongue spoils a pure, perfect taste of what it used to be
you are the gift that keeps on giving
i am the burden that keeps on living
a ghost condemned to give in
i feel a part of me is missing
is there something more?
is there something more beyond what I can see?
stay with me through this, stay with me
