Chasing your shadow like a bird struggling to fly
For all this time my wings turned out to be a lie
I thought I found the way out of this horrid maze
I got the power, but it set me all ablaze

One step too far, one glimpse too long, I can't escape
My freedom gone, I'm all alone, my mind feels fake
I'm ghost of what I've used to be, I am your slave
You're all I have, you're all I need, you're all I crave

I'm not a human anymore, I've turned to dust
Astral projection stripped of feelings but for lust
I cannot read, I cannot write, I cannot think
I cannot breathe, I cannot eat, I cannot drink

All my surroundings seem like backgrounds in a game
No interactions and no heat comes from the flame
I'm cold, so cold despite my body being warm
My hands in shake, my reason's down, my heart is torn

I'm crying tasteless tears of pain I cannot feel
Your gentle love ment to be silk was made of steel
With every kiss your lips left scars on my frail skin
I thought that you'd be my salvation, but you're sin
