Schmerzgeister im Schlund

Lyrics

„I drink you empty… glass shards in my heart…“ Your face – a brand deep in my brain Every memory tears me apart – like barbed wire around my being I'm drowning in „Miss you“ – sweet like poison, bitter like gall Counting the scars on my soul, every night in this hall („THIS HALL!“) The empty hall – where we danced when we still laughed Now knives are dancing on my back – your abandoned battles, your epitaph (Male: „KNIVES!“) You said: „Healing takes time“ But time is a knife – and I'm way too wide „too wide… too wide…“) My heart – a shattered glass SHATTERED!“) Every pulse a stab – I'm bleeding in the past that let me go I'm drowning! „DROWNING!“) In bittersweet waves – let me sink, let me fall No shore, no light – just the pain that judges me right Your name as a chain – on my broken neck so tight BREAKDOWN „CASSER! CASSER!“ PAIN IS MY BED! TEARS ARE MY BREAD! DEVOUR ME, YOU BITTERSWEET DEAD! (: „bittersweet… bittersweet…“) You wanted my healing? Look at me: A walking „too late“ (: „TOO LATE!“) Every smile from back then – today a scalpel that twists my fate (Male: „SCALPEL!“) I pressed your lips onto bottles – every cigarette your breath BREATH!“) Every sunrise screams: „She's not here!“… that's my creed, my death ( „CREED!“) …my bleeding prayer Memory: Your hand in mine… now just cold air. „You can do this“ – who said that? The voice that left me there. My heart – a shattered glass („SHATTERED! SHATTERED!“) Every pulse a stab – I'm drowning in the sea that you once were IN BITTERSWEET WAVES ( „WAVES!“) Let me sink (: „SINK!“) Your face – the lightning that blinds my gaze AND I LOVE IT – HOW IT BURNS MY HEART IN A BLAZE! („BLAZE!“) „Glass… doesn't heal… it just cuts deeper.“ „DEEPER!“
