lyrics

it always feels like i am turning my back on the ocean
harbored and longing- feels like betrayal
keep you inside of a locket
take you out again when i want to feel you breathe

watching my knuckles turn white
as the tips of my fingers burn blue
creep up my spine as our lives intertwine
maybe this is okay?
i cannot pretend anymore

i hate myself for feeling this way
i must stand still but my feet push me forward
hanging on words and promises
my stomach feels so empty

picking up the pieces from another failure
i cannot stop destroying relationship after relationship
how many men do i have to break the hearts of before i am satisfied?

every light burns twice as bright until i put them out at night
every light gets darker till i die
