I die

Take this life of mine and crush it in your hands
Wring it dry until my heart is dead
Nothing I say will change your mind
So take this life and smother the flames

the Afflictions of knowing you can’t finish me off
Will be your undoing. So clench my heart till my blood runs out
Pound my flesh till there’s nothing but the molecules left
And maybe when you’re done you’ll wake up and realize

I’m not going anywhere, not me or this life of mine.
Do your very best to steal away my dignity
Soon you’ll realize you’re the one who’s weak
I’m strong enough to die by you (for you)

Take this life of mine and crush it in your hands
Wring it dry until my heart is dead
Nothing I say will change your mind
So take this life and smother the flames (I die)

Hope is not enough to be able to make it through
Open your eyes my Queen and then you’ll know
Your kingdom has fallen for you (relinquished it freedom on your silly whims)

Take this life of mine and crush it in your hands
Wring it dry until my heart is dead
Nothing I say will change your mind
So take this life and smother the flames (I die)

Oh….

The blade that strikes is always the one that’s weak
Covered in the blood of thousands, it will rust away
And leave you with just a sheath and a handle that held that blade

Take this life of mine and crush it in your hands
Wring it dry until my heart is dead
Nothing I say will change your mind
So take this life and smother the flame (I die)
