Heart Failure

I’ll take a quiet escape,
Just as soon as it was love, it turns into hate,
No, I didn’t sell my soul, I left it at the gate (so)
So, I could stare into an empty eye against a diamond wall,
To feel my spirit faltering, my feelings heavy fall,
Into tears…
It feels like heart failure,
This thin crust of ice I’m resting on, so frail,
Melting holes in every vow,
Please find peace in knowing that mine is here now,
In these dreams of, in these dreams of,
In these…
These tears, I cannot shed,
No one understands what’s going on, inside my head,
When my mistakes and insecurities paint a letter in crimson red (upon my chest),
Burning holes in my breast,
While I’m talking to myself, a conversation meant for two,
A conversation meant for you…
It feels like heart failure,
This thin crust of ice I’m resting on, so frail,
Melting holes in every vow,
Please find peace in knowing that mine is here now,
In these dreams of, in these dreams of,
In these…
Retrieve my soul and take it home,
Escape the lights, so I can sing alone,
A bumpy ride rocks me to sleep,
And my subconscious melody,
Is the soundtrack to a nightmare
To a nightmare…
It feels like heart failure,
This thin crust of ice I’m resting on, so frail,
Melting holes in every vow,
Please find peace in knowing that mine is here now
It feels like breathing in the toxic fumes of an open flame
Poison seeps into my every pore and rushes through my veins
Contaminating every thought I think and every voice inside
With these dreams, these dreams, these dreams of
Carbon monoxide, carbon monoxide, dreams of carbon monoxide
Carbon monoxide, dreams of carbon monoxide, dreams of carbon monoxide,
Dreams of carbon monoxide…
I’ll take a quiet escape,
Just as soon as it was love, it turns into hate
