The more I am the less you take
Malign habits fill silent space
All to avoid our true intent
There is enough for the both of us
I haven't heard your voice in years
Tiny dew drops upon the leaves
In my restraint skies burn away
Time is still all the same
Close your eyes, only listen
Feel your breath go
Brace for the worst, bite through my tongue
While you fall to your knees again
For a hollow idol, a rotten mind
The corpse is only golden to the eye
