lyrics

Your actions were foreboding
Yeah, I should’ve known
Your love it was eroding
It chilled me to the bone
It wasn’t like before
You wanted more
Even though I gave
Everything you craved

I tried to make you my own
All you want’s a slave
My love was yours alone
But your heart’s depraved
It wasn’t like before
You wanted more
Even though I gave
Everything you craved

You betrayed
But I still forgave
All the words you said
Hoped you would behave
But you lied instead
Hung me by a thread
Left me here for dead
Now I lay
In a shallow grave

What lies beneath the surface
Ineffable script
Soul cast into a furnace
Now cold ash in a crypt
It wasn’t like before
You wanted more
Even though I gave
Everything you craved

You betrayed
But I still forgave
All the words you said
Hoped you would behave
But you lied instead
Hung me by a thread
Left me here for dead
Now I lay
In a shallow grave

My blind eyes couldn’t see
The portent of doom
Your grip of villainy
In which I was entombed
It wasn’t like before
You wanted more
Even though I gave
Everything you craved

You betrayed
But I still forgave
All the words you said
Hoped you would behave
But you lied instead
Hung me by a thread
Left me here for dead
Now I lay
In a shallow
You betrayed
But I still forgave
All the words you said
Hoped you would behave
But you lied instead
Hung me by a thread
Left me here for dead
Now I lay
In a shallow grave
