Persephone Lyrics

One day I woke up

And you were gone

And in your absence

Everything fell apart again

But this time is different

The chill has settled in

You're unresponsive

When was the time of death

The door was opened

Taken right off the hinge

We should avoid the cold

But instead you just let it in

Now the freeze cuts me so deep

I feel it enter my bones

Everything that you've been hiding

Has finally taken its toll and

You chose leaving

Over mending wounds that

You left bleeding

Tell me, how was it so easy

For you to pull the plug on me

I know that I'm no doctor but

What makes you think you are, baby

Those nights that you went missing, love

Was the pomegranate sweet

Did you at all get tired

Chasing someone else's seed

The shelter that we made

No longer feels like home

How did I end up here

Living inside its corpse

I've watered these dead trees

Hoping that they would grow

Waiting on the guest who

Who checked out years ago

Paralyzed

How could I have ignored all the signs

Our years have lost any meaning

I'm left here wondering why

I still blame me

Why do I still blame me

When you were the one to hold the keys

Ray of light

Princess bride

Apple of my eye

Why did you lead us here

Drive away

And leave me here to die

The shelter that we made

No longer feels like home

How did I end up here

Living inside its corpse

I always end up paying for

All your mistakes

I'm living inside its corpse

Yeah

Just move

Just move

Just move

The shelter that we made

No longer feels like home

How did I end up here

Living inside its corpse

I've watered these dead trees

Hoping that they would grow

Waiting on the guest who

Who checked out years ago

You checked out years ago

As I pick up the pieces

My parting words are that you lied to me

From the moment that you said "I do"

You lied to me

Yes I tried, yes I tried

You lied to me

When you said "I'd rot in hell with you"

You lied to me

You lied to me

I have nothing left to say to you
