(DESIRE):

The door creaks quiet

What's on the other side?

Not sure I like what I find

The beginning of limerence

Everything comes in waves

A void inside, looking for hope again

So much to gain that can't quite be grasped

A melding of energy, souls split down the center

Memories of you are pictures that might exist

Trading bones and blood for some great reward

Looking for light in this cold, uncaring world

"I can be the vast ocean,

I can be the stars,

I can be the world."

Starving for this version of you

Crumbs of love won't fill my stomach

But it's warmth that exists only in my mind

Chasing a ghost, something I can't ever have

Haunted by all that could have been

And torn by what can not be

Wanting more than I can get leads me nowhere

These things unresolved trap with limerence

Can I break free? Can I stop feeding the monster?

These things unresolved trap with limerence

(REALITY):

Built to be something you're not

I sit alone and consider the thought

I made you what I wanted in my life

Everything I think of you are lies

With too much sunk in to cut all ties

I can't swing the knife
