Makyo - Another Breath

I can’t just walk away-

I know that there’s a better answer

A better way than this

But the Devil’s playing games

And the razor blade is begging me to listen to my wrists:

«Just let go.

Just let go

Take the vein and I will take your pain

Just let go.

Just let go

You’re not meant for this world

I was meant to take you away.»

My will is weak

And my hands tremble

I take the razor and I say

«Not Today.

Not Today.»

«Open up and bleed or there’ll be hell to pay.»

«Not today.

Not today.

In some future I may falter.

Not today.»

So, here we stand at this familiar impasse

It’s you and me, motherf*cker

It’s just you and me

Just you and me.

Just you and me

I gather up my strength and touch the ground

Feet don’t fail me now

«See me.

Hear me.»

I don’t need you to take my pain

«See me.

Hear me.»

I open up and bleed in a different way

«See me.

Hear me.»

I won’t give voice to delusion

I AM
