Breathtaker

Beyond imagination, born of blood and fire

In splendid isolation, I have lived

Corrupted and conspiring

All I wanted, all I was living for

An end to all the silent sweet revenge

And nothing more



No longer God's Apollo, no more Mercury

Down among the unbelievers

Fuck the wild and wasted, look at me

Got pills to sleep, got pills to get awake

Eternally I ray no-one my breath will take



The honesty is gone now

There is no other way in this state of mine

The resolutions halted

The innocence betrayed by your hand



All I can do is keep uncertain company

I get this murderous intention

With a tendency to fly

How can I hold on?

If I'm not living who am I?



He knows that I'm about him

He feels me in his skin, I follow him in again

Confidence is shaken, his conscience is unclear

One of us promised more



I know you lie with me, breathtaker

To dream my dreams

You steal them for the maker of rain

Get out of my subterranean heart and I'm alive

Asylum is everything and it's mine



Are you made of stone?

And are you there at all or here in my head?

Anyone with half a brain would do the same

I know your name
