"Contours" lyrics

I've been losing it nothing short of the usual
Drug abuse is the fuse and then I'm delusional
I'd never do it cause you would cry at the funeral
You were tired and beautiful, you would try and dispute it though
I know you gave it your dedication and made an effort
Know you hated the hesitation to stay together
Should have taken the medication to make it better
I'll hate this mistake forever

I thought I saw the devil in a streetlight shadow
Thought I saw the reaper in the sky
When every single night was like a constant battle
You would always try to make it right
I thought I saw the devil in my own reflection
Thought I saw the reaper from below
When I was reminiscing nights when there was no protection
You would always let me let it go
But you're gone now

I've been dying to clarify an apology
You were trying to sterilize every thought of a doubt
Deep inside of a curse that we haven't buried
Like Virgil and Alighieri
And I was trying to follow you down
Both afraid to abandon hope but we need to enter
Saw the circles and now we can never be together
Should have taken the medication to treat it better
I'll hate this mistake forever

I thought I saw the devil in a streetlight shadow
Thought I saw the reaper in the sky
When every single night was like a constant battle
You would always try to make it right
I thought I saw the devil in my own reflection
Thought I saw the reaper from below
When I was reminiscing nights when there was no protection
You would always let me let it go
But you're gone now

I thought I saw the devil in a streetlight shadow
Thought I saw the reaper in the sky
When every single night was like a constant battle
You would always try to make it right

I thought I saw the devil in my own reflection
Thought I saw the reaper from below
When I was reminiscing nights when there was no protection
You would always let me let it go
But you're gone now

I saw the devil in a streetlight
I would never want to be like everything I grew up to despise
In my head I want to rewrite
Every memory I keep tight hidden in the ruins I reside
I saw the devil in a streetlight
I would never want to be like everything I grew up to despise
In my head I want to rewrite
Every memory I keep tight hidden in the ruins I reside
