Verse 1:
I wait in silence while you sleep
Your breath becomes the air I breathe
It quiets all the war inside
But why chase ghosts who only hide?
My past is carved in broken glass
Still you reach through all the cracks
What made you choose this path so cruel
To love the one who’d break the rules?
Chorus:
I’m no savior, I’m the damage (damage)
You deserve peace, not this baggage (baggage)
You’re the flame, I’m the ashes (ashes)
Lost inside my murderous passion (passion)
Verse 2:
Tears fall fast, but not for me
I was born in tragedy
You bring flowers, I bring blame
Still you stay and speak my name
You dream in color, I think in grey
Why won’t your kindness look away?
Couldn’t it have been someone new
Someone I could lie to, use?
Chorus:
I’m no savior, I’m the damage (damage)
You deserve peace, not this baggage (baggage)
You’re the flame, I’m the ashes (ashes)
Lost inside my murderous passion (passion)
Bridge:
Why did it have to be your face?
In this graveyard I embrace
You’re the mercy I can’t own
I was built to be alone
Outro Chorus:
I’m no savior, I’m the damage (damage)
You deserve peace, not this baggage (baggage)
You’re the flame, I’m the ashes (ashes)
Lost inside my murderous passion (passion)
Outro:
In your touch, I feel release
But monsters never get their peace
You held the knife I placed inside
Still kissed me through my suicide
