Intertwine - Kira

I never thought that sleep could be such an exhausting way to run from who I've been
I'm being torn apart in this universe between you and your skin
Because you pulled me in, and I fell into an ocean I was never meant to swim
My body's cold, the air grows thin

"As long as we're alive
We can find a heaven"
That's so easy to say
When we can just make believe
Bodies are more than cages
Keeping us locked in ourselves

Because hell shines so much brighter in this
Ocean I was never meant to swim
There is a universe between you and your skin
And now I sleep within

I feel the borders of my being slip away
I don't know where I end and where the thoughts of you begin
I've grown so comfortable in this half-living state
Where all that keeps me alive is a stranger's praise
It isn't failure I fear
What I fear is change

If we were one, body and soul, the version of myself alive in your mind would become real.
So what the fuck would become of me?
We could lick the wounds cut out by the world and by ourselves
We could prove that we're alive
Before we have to die
I claw at your skin, like if I break through I could be something more than myself
Be like what you see in me

But I'm so afraid

Oceans I could never help but swim
There is a universe between you and your skin
Don't take me in again
