"embers" lyrics

I lay into my comfort
Whispering into the dimly lit room
"I love you, I love you"
Faded colors of orange and yellow still haunt me
I feel the twilight's embers burn
With every sweet intent
Exerted as unbridled anger
My chest is exploding, my chest is exploding
Leaving me screaming, "I love you, I love you"
(I love you)

Slammed in my wrist
These twisted stems
This new feeling won't last
I beg, I beg for your hand
Your hand

Why did I dare to love you
Why did I dare to love you
Why did I dare to love you
Why did I dare to love you (Why did I dare to love you)

Pouring out her chest, her sweet flowers lay wilted
She feels their pedals sink between her fingers, leaving nothing but dried carbon
"Grab these lavender thorns and shove them into my wrists
Maybe I'll feel something different," she yells
Her liquid runs across her skin, starving for more
She continues to slam those twisted stems further into her arms
"Oh God, oh God, oh God," she repeats internally
Wondering how long these newfound scars will take to blossom
Little does she know, cutting through her own skin will find no flowers
Yet she continues to wail

I love you
Why did I dare to love you
Why did I dare to love you
Why did I dare to love you
Why did I dare to love you
Why did I dare to love you (Slammed in my wrist!)
Why did I dare to love you (These twisted stems!)
Why did I dare to love you (This new feeling won't last!)
Why did I dare to love you (I beg, I beg for your hand!)
Your hand!
