Counterparts Purer Form Of Pain Lyrics

[Intro]
I've saved a drop of blood for when I truly need it most
To be distributed among the parasites
I've saved a drop of blood for when I truly need it most
To be exchanged for a purer form of pain

[Verse 1]
My ribcage will replace a ladder's rungs
Leading me towards the ceiling of my curse
As the earth falls upward from the ground
Where I collapse in sunken skies

[Pre-Breakdown]
I am but one man
And the sorrow I have salvaged won't sustain

[Breakdown]
Murder me in the silence I have lived in
My fingernails won't hold a torch that mirrors my reflection
Murder me in the silence I have lived in

[Verse 2]
No trace of tension could coerce the composition from my skull
Like a currency reserved for skeletons I will deny a high regard
Sick to my stomach at the distance to the ground

[Verse 3]
My ribcage will replace a ladder's rungs
Leading you towards the depth of my despair
We collapse inside the walls that close before us

[Pre-Breakdown]
Murder me in the silence I have lived in
A fabrication to appease the ones who suffer

[Breakdown]
Don't call me your protector
I couldn't keep myself from caving in
Don't call me your protector
A war against myself I'll never win

[Outro]
I've saved a drop of blood for when I truly need it most
To be distributed among the parasites
I've saved a drop of blood for when I truly need it most
To be exchanged for a purer form of pain
