Oresteia - The Velvet Rope Lyrics

I sít and wait for time to pass
And pray that this feeling won't last
These walls are caving in
These walls are giving in
My failures are your friend
Moving into my home
Cold hands on ones I love
Screeching for a voice
When I got nothing left
I can't believe you're gone
I can't believe it's here
Replacing every thought of you
But peace is nowhere near
As within and so without
Where's the love when there's a drought
The silence ringing in my ear
Shows me all your destined fears
I live in this space
And this space consumes me
A prison with no sanity
It sits to watch me bleed
This wolf mistakes itself for sheep
Falling to my knees
More alike than similar
But I want something familiar
But I am tomorrow
And you are today
With dried lips and parched throats
I have nothing left to say
For now you steal my today
Mine's the only solace you take from
I question why and how I bleed f*ck
You take it all from beneath me
An ouroboros of my own truth will tell me I'm becoming
Don't leave me in this f*cking void
Your cold sinister darkness ploy
Don't think I will do it in sight
Tonight I will meet my end
These things I feel are quite similar
When it haunts me deep inside
I can't trust my own mind
To whom I confide
This feeling tends to rise
This wolf mistakes itself for sheep
Falling to my knees
More alike than similar
But I want something familiar
You are tomorrow
And I am today
Mine's the only solace you take from
I question why and how I bleed f*ck
You take it all from beneath me
An ouroboros of my own truth will tell me I'm becoming
Don't leave me in this f*cking void
Your cold sinister darkness ploy
Don't think I will do it in sight
Orpheus will bring you back
I taxidermy my feelings to preserve the thought of you
Years of love all forgotten in the hatred of a minute
Just give me a minute to collect my peace
Revoked of the privilege to even allow me to grieve
The time is ticking
And I am willing
To sacrifice it today
And I'll be begging
And I'll be pleading for you
To show me the way
Out of this hell
In neglect
This affects
Everything I know
Even when I loved you so
Even when you knew that I couldn't let you go
Even when you knew that I had loved you so
Come close to me
Show me all the things
That I'm destined to be
With faith I don't have
I'm testing the waters
And I'm going further
Than I have before
This is the lock on a revolving door
Can't blame someone hungry for wanting some more
Carry me home (x9)
You don't wanna leave me in this void
Your cold sinister darkness ploy
Orpheus will bring you back
Or tonight I will meet my end
You don't wanna leave me in this void
Your cold sinister darkness ploy
Orpheus will bring you back
Or tonight I will meet my end
