Lyrics: 
I can taste it,
If I look through you.
And on my mind,
And all my body,
We’re scrolling though.

I’ll pick you up, you don’t seem right.
I know it’s late,
And I’m still high!
Don’t give it breath,
Don’t give it life,
I’ll conjure up,
These flashing lights.
These flashing light.

I’ve been wasting,
All my time on you.
Can’t see for stars,
And you know the moons for fools.

See the wolves, wait here for now,
Keep binding heels,
Can’t you hear them howl!
Don’t give it breath,
See it take flight,
And watch it burn,
With firelight.
With firelight.

Because nothing, nothing could hurt me more.
Than those four things.
Than those four things,
Consuming you.
Consuming you.

And you know you find it hard, to come out of your shell,
Your shell.
And I know it makes it hard, to love you well,
Well…

And the truth is, that nothing could hurt me more,
Than those four things.
Than those four things,
Consuming you.
Consuming you.
