lyrics

These walls I've built can't stand without
A little pressure to keep me from caving inside out
Diamond eyes, reflecting fears
That burned a hole in you
Too blind to see straight through

Honesty couldn't save me from the weather
I'll sleep until spring, give me time to recover
With both eyes shut, I'll think of you
Remember what was without you

Drenched in stars, glisten beneath the moon
Shallow skulls pour over when it's only you
Souvenirs, reminders of passing days
Of all the time that I'll never get back again

Honesty couldn't save me from the weather
I'll sleep until spring, give me time to recover
With both eyes shut I'll think of you
Remember what was without you

Tracing circles into the wall
Let the ivy grow
Watch the first snow fall on the lawn
Let the ivy grow
Burying nails into my skull
Let the ivy grow
I should've let go instead of holding on

Kept all the blood in my head
Replayed the visions of my death
