D-DU-UDU
He bends and he breaks
If you kiss it will take away
His passion, his pain, his grace
He exhales
A thousand black flowers explode
Into butterflies as they're away
Rip them out, take them
Burn to coals as they crush him
Leave nothing that
Resembles a soul of a man
(See him numb, see him crushed)
See him numb, see him crushed
Rip them out, take them
Burn to coals as they crush him
Leave nothing that
Resembles a soul of a man
(Leave him numb, leave him crushed)
Leave him numb, leave him crushed
Just a fire inside one too many times
He's burning over and out as he fails
Up against the raging tides
No more fights
Everything you ever wanted to see
I see it in his eyes
One more time, one more time
Climb down to test the waters
My hands feel like they're rusting away, yeah
So I'll pace around like a lamb before the slaughter
I'll stay here, as long as you let me
Decisions, then, made obvious,
So I will return to where I started, I'll stay there
Unfinished I'll wither away
