One Flesh

Tonight, I feel alone in my own will
If I lied to heal my bones, it's because I knew
That you would forgive me
Sewing my skin stitch by stitch
Every time I plunged into my shadow
Going deeper, but always shallow
You became my foundation
So that I didn't touch humiliation
For I fell into my own war
Just to hide a scar

You strengthen my hope
When I step into the world of your body
I feel like I'm close
To free my thoughts
For I've already broken the rope
Because, because
Just because

You're my time
You're my way
Just as I am you

You're my night
You're my day
Just as I am you

You're my life
More than a fate
You own my truth

You're my mind
Through my face
The soul of my truth

Don’t cry, I'm aware that I'm wrong
For making you sad
Sometimes I'm so bad, headstrong
Messing with your head
Even so, you put up with me
Even when I'm puffed with pride
Living for nothing
Fighting for a worthless prize
So, I turn your head to my spotlight
Because I wish I could drive you mad, tonight
Because, because
Just because

You're my time
You're my days
Just as I am you

You've my fire
Through my flames
Just as I have you

And I lay it all down
Come to save me
Bringing me closer to you

And I lay it all down
Come to save me
Drawing me close to you

I lay it all down
And you're aware
That I'm downhearted and blue

I lay it all down
Just come to save me
Drawing me close to you
