Dying by Design

Take me with the flood
No one ever stays
It’s a sickness of the blood
Infection torn away
It’s all just out of view
No matter what you do
It’s us, it’s me, it’s you
Dark reflection of my emptiness
Slowly regress
A feeling I cannot express for you
For you
We’re dying on the vine
Dying by design
And I will not forget
'Til my last breath
It’s love, it’s hate, it’s death
Dark reflection of our emptiness
A final caress
Something you can’t possess
Sever the bloodline
Something you’ll never see
Bury the key
It’s cold, it’s dead, it’s me
Dark reflection of our emptiness
Slowly regress
Isolation
Dark reflection, a final goodbye
The all-seeing eye
Together we die
By design
