Lyrics: "Breathe (Goodbye)"

This is a free write song. I have images in my head to go with it, but none translate at the moment...lol I'll go more in depth as far as lyrics and what they mean soon.


Breathe (Goodbye)


Arrange these words
Presented cordial from me to you
and breathe them deep inside
Your turning mind
Re-create the message
As your body is built to do
Manipulate the thoughts you come to find

Lie. It's what you do best,
No. Don't you ever mind the rest
Leave the truth to me.
Just use that mouth to breathe (goodbye)
You're a dying man's last request.
Beautiful girl, but a whore, none the less

Bathing in your surprised, wide eyed expression
What did you think was coming your way?
A teller of tales spilled many a confession
Drunken paths led to words you'd later say

Lie. It's what you do best,
No. Don't you ever mind the rest
Leave the truth to me.
Just use that mouth to breathe (goodbye)
You're a dying man's last request.
Beautiful girl, but a whore, none the less

Stand before me now, dear and await my final verdict of
A broken glass, a withered rose, unsaturated love.
Attempt to salvage, fall to failure's hands

Dust causes a shadow to fall
Across the tattered land
with a remnant of the lives that lay here still
You followed them blindly
With a gun clenched
In your battered hands
Never thought you'd be the one I'd have to kill.

In a silent hell, my darling. Try.
No one can you hear you scream
You're better off lying with
Your head between your knees
Be patient.
The night of your end will be creeping soon
The heavy breath of death
Will begin his walk in search of you

Away. Go far from this place.

Lie. (in your grave)
It's what you do best,
No. (one to save you) Don't you ever mind the rest
Leave the truth to me.
Just use that mouth to breathe (goodbye)
You're a dying man's last request.
Beautiful girl, but a whore, none the less

Lie in your grave
No one to save you
Lie in your grave
No one can save you now.
