"Venom In Me" lyrics

I carve a promise, you break the vow
I raise the questions you won't allow
I build a shelter, you tear the walls
I hear the warning, you miss the calls
I paint the silence, you stain it red
I chase the living, you count the dead
I seek the mercy, you thirst for shame
But no one will know your name

So give it up
You keep the venom tangled in my veins
And every fracture only carves your name
Just like an echo through the distance
Calling in vain

I shape our dreams while you stain the sky
I tell the truth while you feed the lie
I guard the embers, you douse the flame
I call it love but you call it blame
I face the mirror, you turn away
I beg for colors, you worship grey
I write the ending, you tear the page
I free the captive, you lock the cage

So give it up
You keep the venom tangled in my veins
And every fracture only carves your name
Just like an echo through the distance
Calling in vain
So tear it down
You haunt the places where I used to sleep
And every memory cuts far too deep
Just like a siren in the distance
You are the venom in me

So give it up
You keep the venom tangled in my veins
And every fracture only carves your name
Just like an echo through the distance
Calling in vain
So tear it down
You haunt the places where I used to sleep
And every memory cuts far too deep
Just like a siren in the distance
You are the venom in me
