"Hysteria" lyrics

"Hysteria"

I swear I never meant to erase you
I swear I never meant to do you harm
If living is so delicate, my leaving is a tourniquet
I'm breathing in the broken window pane

Annihilate the only ties I have left to lose
In diamond shapes, the lattice breaks, I follow

In this state of hysteria
I can save everything I betrayed
Annihilate, the lattice breaks
I follow the pain I create

Hide my blood in images and
Make sense of a false connection like
How did I get here?
How do I hold on
To diamonds in my head
And diamonds in my lungs?

Annihilate the only ties I have just to lose someone
In diamond shapes, the lattice breaks, I follow

In this state of hysteria
I can save everything I betrayed
Annihilate, the lattice breaks
I follow the pain I create

What I've created as violent delights in my head
Will have a violent end
A broken violent end
And I feel fear disintegrate
Axis annihilate
In crystal clarity
Tension pulling me in the shadows
