"Cleopatra" lyrics

"Cleopatra"

I was lost in myself and forgot you
Many years had passed; I grew old without you
You held me down under water. You're a bully, a monster
You called the hounds on me. I told you she's crazy

Higher up you go. You had lost me
At the bottom of your spiral, you would crush me
Your music comes from a pearl. You're distorted, insane
You brushed the hair from my forehead. She was back again

Don't tell me to fuck off. I'm in love with you still
Don't write what we have off. It's not too late for us
Where is she now? In the shelter of someone else's house
Somebody who doesn't know you like I do

I found shelter from the storm in your fortress
Where many men had gone long before this
She loves with reckless abandon. You're a psycho conundrum
You drained the colors from me. I told you she's crazy

Don't tell me to fuck off. I'm in love with you still
Don't write what we have off. It's not too late for us
Where is she now? In the shelter of someone else's house
Somebody who doesn't know you like I do

I'll weather the storms for you. I won't let you sink too deep
I'll take all your suffering and place it onto me

Don't tell me to fuck off. I'm in love with you still
Don't write what we have off. It's not too late for us
Where is she now? In the shelter of someone else's house
Somebody who doesn't know you like I do
