Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Calm your mind, furrowed brow
Let me take what I did wrong
Pick it out from below tousled hair
Forgive me. Know I'm sorry
Give me your white, cracked lips
Let me clean up the blood off your chin
Close those heavy tired eyes
Rest your head on my chest and fall asleep again
Trust the voice of my sore throat
Fear not the death of my tongue
Bony hands will take the note
Rectify mistakes from when I was young
You're the muse that I killed off
I'm a flame turned into coal
Fear itself and all I've done
Now cover everything you are
So save yourself the time and the effort
You know that things will never get better
All the creatures that we flirt with at midnight
Now creep up from under our bed
Now you know the difference between foxes and wolves
With both of their teeth stuck down your throat
And I, for one, know they won't let me go
Don't underestimate the wolves
The hands that held the lie will never touch you again
They've been left behind along with the rotting body
Of what I once was
A mixture of lies, fears, and missteps
Dressed in a twisted design displaying love, but giving only pain
So go ahead, throw me in the flames
Here I will lay naked on the floor displaying all of me
The real me
The one stripped of treason and deceit
The one who loves you and holds you near with bleeding hands
So, don't be afraid my dear, I am yours
And here I will forever stay, holding you in my embrace
Transforming every subtle feeling into song
Hoping that one day you'll hear in the strumming of my strings
And the breaking of my voice
And although I've made it a task to believe that people don't forgive
God forbid they forget
Telling myself, "How could she after what I did?"
Things like these will linger in your head
And whisper atom bombs in your mind
But, the hope still remains that you will hear me in the
Strumming of my strings
And the breaking of my voice
Fear itself and all I've done now cover everything you are
So, save yourself the time and the effort
You know that things will never get better
All the creatures that we flirt with at midnight
Now creep up from under our bed
Now you know the difference between foxes and wolves
With both of their teeth stuck down your throat
And I, for one, know they won't let me go
Don't underestimate the wolves
(No, they won't let me go)
Don't underestimate the wolves
The devil's got a bird's eye view on the things that I've done wrong
He's whispering them into my ear
Day in, day out
I do my best to count to ten, but the numbers come undone
And I'm trying hard to control my breath
Breathe in, breathe out
