I want you, to love you Why do I see pools of crimson
Where your silhouette casts shadows down the corridor
So many whispers in the hall
Rain drops like tears, sing of painful cries
But it's just water from your heart, I drank it
The taste is bitter, who wrapped you in poison
Said you should leave yourself in painted boxes
Collecting dust in the attic
I hear their voices while, I walk in my sleep
Darkened eyes, reaching for sunlight
But no one goes deep enough, into the cave to find you
Monstrous imaginings, powered by shadows and dragons
Powered by shadows and dragons
I feel you're frigid, seep into me
Cold for my warmth, quiet exuberance
Walking slowly towards their pedestal
For statues standing, in crumbling gesture
Like eons to my temporal state
Who knows where they're going, at least for now
I know where they came from
Darkened eyes, reaching for sunlight
But no one goes deep enough, into the cave to find you
Monstrous imaginings, powered by shadows and dragons
Powered by shadows and dragons
Please shout out to me, as loud as you ever could
Eyes clouded with tears
Fighting back the grandest of smiles
Unable to resist emotions
And tell me, you love you
I want you to love yourself
Darkened eyes, reaching for sunlight
But no one goes deep enough, into the cave to find you
Monstrous imaginings, powered by shadows and dragons
Powered by shadows and dragons
So high, you're in heaven
So low, you're in hell
The cave or the attic
Can anyone tell you what you must tell yourself
