The acid reflux in my throat hasn't appeased my taste for bitter blondes I've twisted so many necks and now their souls daily blind my mind Your presence, I took for granted I deceived your confidence I'll never achieve emotional numbness, Nor will I enjoy a single peaceful rest Your presence, I took for granted I deceived your confidence Your angelic hand touches my venomous spine Through overwhelming nightmares I now stand under this Damocles dagger I'll kill again to lighten apathy towards me The amazing brightness that makes you so precious And exceptional tears me apart I need your presence but my shadow is tarnishing your radiance I feel remorse but unfortunate events Make my world uglier this morning Repentance hurts but not enough Let's start again tonight
