Echoes

lyrics

Please forgive me, Dear,
I lost my mind.
For a moment there I had
Forgotten what you’re worth to me.

Believe me, I will love you.
Believe me, I will break through.

There are echoes, in our DNA,
From the sins of our fathers.
We hail from broken men;
The blood coursing through me is
Tainted, polluting the flawless
Beating in my chest.
I’m the sickest rose,
Waiting through winter’s cold
To taste the hint of spring
On your lips.
I’ll burn for you.

Don’t call me a martyr,
I’m nothing but a masochist
For sacrificing everything I am
For your benefit.
Along with the selfish satisfaction
That it brings to know
I’m losing myself in you.

Please forgive me, Dear,
I lost my mind.
As you laid there I killed you
With vacant, twisted promises.
My heart, though I long to share,
Bears a weight that I’m fearful could
Sink us like a millstone.
Still, I must confess
That the embers within me
Will ever burn for you alone.

We are reflections,
Shadows, infections,
Imperfect perfections
By resurrection.
