Descent Lyrics by Tapestry

The Pain You Desire, The Love You Deserve

0

[Verse]
I've sold my soul
I've watched it all crumble right under my feet
I've seen the change but stayed the same
Addicted to this disease
Forcing my hand upon my deathbed
Laying flowers by its side
Right before I start digging my grave before I've died

[Verse]
I can feel the light that's slipping away
It feels so far away from me
The cold is sinking into my body
Drained by my obsession
Because I've never learned my lesson
I've been hiding all the joy that I can't find
'Cause I can't sleep at night

[Verse]
I struggle with all thе thoughts
Running through my mind
Because I choke whеn I try to scream, I want help
By a brain that's changed to be someone else
I'm breaking inside but I won't tell
All the reasons that I hate myself

[Chorus]
I'm always stuck in a descent
Hailing to my demons
With all of this blood raining over my head
Dragging the pain from within
Carving it out of my skin
The reaper and I walk hand in hand

[Verse]
Oh, it must be written in the stars
That I'm supposed to be miserable 'til I drop
And I can't wash away the stains
Of what this world has done to me
Can I still erase my pain?
Can I ever start over again?

[Verse]
What would it take to go back
To have the chance to change
Would I have done anything different?
Or just made the same mistakes?
Maybe it's instilled in me?
This constant state of lethargy
Taunted by what could have been my own worst enemy

[Chorus]
I'm always stuck in a descent
Hailing to my demons
With all of this blood raining over my head
Dragging the pain from within
Carving it out of my skin
The reaper and I walk hand in hand
Dragging the pain from within
Carving it out of my skin
The reaper and I walk hand in hand
If I can't wash away the stains
Of what this world has done to me
Can I still erase my pain?
Can I ever start over again?
