EMBRACE

 

I’m watching you

Breaking down

And tearing me apart, I’m so gone, so long gone

Where do the fallen belong?

 

I crave you

To taste you 

Embrace you

Erase you

To feel you

I need you

To get through

 

I see you reaching out

As you’re broken body bleeds

I see you holding back

Lying next to me

 

Hey maybe we’ll survive, we’ll get through

Maybe we’ll survive, we’ll get through this time

 

Torn skin melts through me

Maybe you can fill my holes

 

I crave you

To taste you

Embrace you

Erase you

To feel you

To heal you

I reach you

I need you

I need you

We’ll get through
