• It's become my habit
    to accept rejection.
    It seems ordinary,
    requires no reflection.

    Ever since the first time
    you cast your shadow on me
    I gave myself to you.
    It's all I had to believe.

    Your light became my darkness,
    your kindness was deception.
    Your poisoned feathers pierced me
    and promised no redemption.

    Is there nothing in me
    that hasn't been corrupted.
    I'm being swallowed up
    until there's nothing unaffected.

    I can no longer care for
    anyone at all.
    I don't have the will to believe
    in the invincibility of love.
