AS LONG AS YOU ARE AMONG THE LIVING

As long as you are among the living

I shall live in fear

I will shutter when I talk

And cry when your name I hear

As long as you breathe on earth, as I

I will take in less air

And live my life as a lie

As long as you sleep I will be awake

Waiting for you to rise

And my smile... I shall fake

As long as you hate yourself

The longer I will doubt

I will try to act like I don't need help

As long as you are living in this town

I will be your slave

And you shall wear the crown

As long as you feel nothing

The more I will grieve

knowing that I need love

And knowing there is nothing you need

As long as you are among the living

My life will never be complete

I will feed my soul to you

and my heart you will eat

As long as you are among the living

I will be living in the shadows of your lies

I will never be the same

Until the day you bleed and die
