Quote


I was a foreigner in my own home

I crashed and turned against the walls a thousand times

In your voice I found a breath

I drowned in suffocation a million times


I searched for an exit in your eyes

I thought you were the only light in the darkness

I came for you, I burned everything

I scattered it all, I suppose


I came for you, I returned hoping for you

I saw light in you, I extinguished my own light

I filtered the light through my eyes and saw you in myself

On your face, from your face


Your absence is heavy, I was crushed beneath it

The same pain always rages within me

You turned me against myself

I was crushed beneath your loneliness, your very loneliness


I was dragged along as a mere possibility

I was dragged through rivers of blood

I spilled my blood along your path

I must have loved you just a little too much


I came for you, I returned hoping for you

I saw light in you, I extinguished my own light

I filtered the light through my eyes and saw you in myself

On your face, from your face


From your face!
