What I Would Give

(альбом: Sanctum - 2022)

Breathing is more like heavy wheezing
Your pain is what has left me freezing
I hoped that one day
I could take all the pain that you held deep
I would trade my life for yours
Just to hear your heart beating again and again
What I would give to see the heartache all end
What I would trade to save us from this dead end
The reapers grip is tight, but we won't give in

If I could suffer for you
I would take all the pain you've ever been through
Without a second thought, I'd never look back
I'd trade my soul for yours, immersed in the black
Hopeful I sink into overwhelming happiness
I long to see you, in another time or in another place
I'm just happy that I was blessed with your grace

For so many years I watched as you wept
Unable to help I couldn't accept
Death's breath on your neck
The weight on your chest collapsing within
To hell I'd have leapt to save you from pain
To hell I would have leapt to see you again
I would have leapt

A soulless life is bittersweet
Trade me yours and you shall reap
Reap
It's the fear that feeds us
Pushed to the precipice
Mind is the enemy
Don't you see that life is precious
Wasting away
Wasted away
You fucking sicken me
I have searched for days in the blackened haze
Innocence means nothing to the cruelness we call death
In another way make the most or death will take you

What I would I give to hear your voice again
I'd take this knife and slit my own throat
What I would give to feel your touch again
I'd take this gun, cock it back and pull

Please lend me all your pain
So, I can take it to the grave
In solace I could leave
As you flourish triumphantly
Carry this torch for me
Light your way from misery

If I could suffer for you
I would take all the pain you've ever been through
Without a second thought, I'd never look back
I'd trade my soul for yours, immersed in the black
Hopeful I sink into overwhelming happiness
I long to see you, in another time or in another place
I'm just happy that I was blessed with your grace
