Svavar Knutur Emotional Anorexic Lyrics

Morning grows near, oh I wish you were here
As I toss and I turn in my bed
I long for your touch and I miss you so much
And the silence has torn me to shreds

But even in longing, I still feel the pronging
Of misery's poisonous claws
When in your perfection I catch my reflection
And in it my numerous flaws

Babe, don't be afraid
You know I love you with all of my heart
Please listen to me
Don't let those wicked thoughts tear us apart

You're brave and you're strong, I am timid and wrong
You're a diamond and I am but coal
You're the moon and the stars, I am ashes and tar You're a nightingale I am a mole

Babe, don't think that way
These are the demons that bite at your soul
Please, come back to me
You're losing your mind and you're out of control

Well, this is my curse and it keeps getting worse
As I can't hold these bad thoughts at bay
So I'll whine and I'll moan and I'll cry on the phone
'till I finally drive you away

And then I will ride with my deflated pride
And the warmth of the blood in my shoe
'till an ugly old scar and a broken guitar
Will be all that reminds me of you
