Counterpart Lyrics by Dayseeker

Dreaming Is Sinking /// Waking Is Rising

2017

[Verse]
Write these words down
Because they might be the last that you hear from me
Swore an oath for, for worse or for better
But I’m left here writing in my death letter
What a crippling thought to imagine it might never reach you
Just know, though, I’m lost
You’re my compass when I search for rescue

[Chorus]
We lost ourselves, caught in a tidal wave
Searched every direction, but I found no one the same
When you find yourself coming across a picture of us
Tell me truthfully, was I your only one?
Would you fall apart when you’d try
To erase every moment lost in time?
My love had a home in your heart
And I’ll die knowing you were my counterpart

[Refrain]
I wanted to be the one to keep you warm when you were cold
Watch our lives play out, but I will be gone while you grow old
Grant me this last request before I meet the hands of death
When I’m buried in the dirt, remember us for what it’s worth

[Chorus]
We lost ourselves caught it a tidal wave
Searched every direction, but I found no one the same
When you find yourself coming across a picture of us
Tell me truthfully, was I your only one?
Would you fall apart when you’d try
To erase every moment lost in time?
My love had a home in your heart
And I’ll die knowing you were my counterpart
My counterpart

[Breakdown]
You filled out my empty pieces
All the parts that I lacked
But I dragged you through hell and back
My hands bruised and bloody before I had an epiphany
That I couldn’t see, I was already in my tomb
This might be the last time I will ever speak
So listen to me, please

[Outro]
Would you fall apart when you’d try
To erase every moment lost in time?
My love had a home in your heart
And I’ll die knowing you were my counterpart
My counterpart, my counterpart
