I only demand that you leave me to die
I don't expect much
I know that you love me, but I cannot lie
I'm cold at your touch

I feel like I'm spiralling into your womb
I could never hurt you
I know that to stay with you I'd be doomed
For my love is not true

If you could despise me I could live again
But I'm not the bad guy
Embracing you is like touching flames
I feel like I might cry

And conflict is living and breathing in me
I feel like I might crack
For you are all that I can ever see
The weight's breaking my back

When I fall in love with you
I'll be lying to myself again
