It's bittersweet
You're resisting very violently
But I need to let you go quietly
Born from withered, lifeless parts
I pieced the puzzle
I pieced the puzzle and it brought me to you

Did you only like me
For the kind of songs that I used to write
(Are you moving side to side or is it just the blood in your veins)
Did you only like me
For the kind of songs that I used to write
(The haunting of this house, the taste in your mouth, always)
