The Jericho Protocol - The Gloom In The Corner

Darkness in me; contorts me to break

Beyond the veil past mirrors, unseen

I think there's something wrong with me

Collapsing are my memories

We can tangle with devils in the white moonlight

Until it all obliviates

"Oh, honey..."

(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don't want to die)

Dance with me

Stay with me

Fall with me

And bury me

(Die and reset; I die and reset)

My bleeding eyes

Count the times they've watched me die

(How many times have I broken my mind?)

Kill me slowly endlessly

The shadows dance; they're goring me

Dance with me

Stay with me

Fall with me

Bury me

How can I be so wrong

To want my love with me?

I won't be chained to a realm that favours

Burying your pain

I see my scarlet red streak

From the blood they've spilled

If they won't let me tend your wounds

I'll burn their kingdom down

Won't you dance with me?

Won't you stay with me?

Won't you fall with me?

I won't let them bury me

(Heaven is a place where we go to die

I don't want to die, I can't stand the thought of losing you or losing my...)

Dance with me

Stay with me

Fall with me

And bury...

I have died a thousand deaths and I will die a thousand more to come back home

to you."

So you can watch me fall

From your forgiving arms

Limb and soul I tore

Watch your Heaven collapse

I am your Daughter no more

Initiate the Protocol

Heaven is a place where we go to die

I don't want to die, I can't stand the thought of losing you or losing my mind

"The last thing I see is your face

As my mind falters and begins to break–"
