Eternity Complex.

(album: Don't You Wanna Be Glad? - 2020)

I've been wearing this body thin since the day I stepped in it
But I've heard ignorance is bliss if we share the same pigment
I've been told your blood is blue before it leaves the body
So forever stay inside to match these cruel thoughts of mine
I tried to hide away from these aches and pains
But I'm sick again it shows, and now we share the same name
So thanks for staying, thanks for praying
That we'll get along tomorrow or maybe the next day or maybe the next
We've bickered for the better part of the century
It's plain to see that we were never meant to be
But you signed the god damn contract
And now instead of unconditional love
We have these silly matching rings
Foolishly I parted you to make the mistakes our parents made
And I promised one day I'd take away your pain
But gave you something much worse unresolved mistakes
You can fix what you've broken but our minds have been obliterated
And the shrapnel scars dancing round the side of your cheek
Match the ones inside my mouth when it's open
I've been hoping that keeping you here would be best but it's developed quite the sickness
It's hysterical to think I hold you from true happiness to avoid becoming a statistic
I don't know why but I take every measure to keep this plane from falling
But it's falling anyway, so I guess just call me when you decide to stop crying
This willingness to change is conflicted by my upbringing
And all I will really do is screw it up again and repeat these words I'm sorry
So I'm sorry
