Catherine Corelli Severance
You were more than I could have known,
One Great Flood that swept me over,
My rabbits swelled and my lilies bloomed.
I couldn't get enough and had so much to give.
I had so much to give…
I've been biding my time for so long
And now I'm biting at your shoulder.
You know I have to go,
I know you have to stay.
So much to feel, so much to never say…
Everything I could give,
Everything you would take.
I'm treading on thin ice we'll never break.
I've lost my coasts to your primal tides
Then I headed south to conquer,
I've seen my win in your ardent eyes.
You've taken me so high I became so alive.
I wanted every everything with you
I wanted everything! I became so alive.
I wanted every everything with you,
Cuz I had so much to give.
I've been biting my tongue for so long
And now I can't anymore
Can't anymore.
You know I have to go,
I know you have to stay.
So much to feel, so much to never say…
Everything I could give,
Everything you would take.
I'm treading on thin ice we'll never break.
As you ravaged my valleys
I got reborn again,
My rivers set ablaze
And my true form attained.
I've sold my sins to you
And went to Wonderland,
Then took a sweet ride to hell.
I could have been your savior,
I could have been your home,
The essence and the flavor
Of a life you've never known.
I should have seen this coming,
But I didn't really care.
And then you left and silence fell,
My DNA ached as I chased your smell.
Because me, because you!
because we're so scared of getting attached.
You left me all alone, climbing the walls in the dark,
With a linea nigra and a scar on my heart.
This deadly silence is ripping my every cell apart
I need to hear you, my synapses are so bruised and
scarred.
It's just… it's just never enough.
You know I have to go,
I know you have to stay.
So much to feel, so much to never say…
Everything I could give,
Everything you would take.
I'm treading on thin ice we'll never break.
Because me, because you!
because we! We don't get attached.
It's just… it's just never enough.
No, it's never enough.
