Coffinmouth - Death Is a Daydream

I saw you pulling light from the sky
And I hurried to hide
To drench my bones in the night

I saw you smuggle stars in your eyes
And I hate that I smiled
But for you they shine so bright

For you they shine so bright

Death is only a daydream
Just a wish for the wounded
A strange sort of sleep
To silence the heart when it's ruined
The blood in my teeth
From biting my tongue full of bruises
Spills when I speak
Sick with my chin soaked in sewage

Dead in all of my daydreams
I wander wherever the blue is
Frenzied and free
Of love and the gutter it grew in
Miserable me
Maybe I miss your abuses
I wish you could see
The scars I have suffered to prove it

You were the world
You were home
You were holy to me

Now you're a worm
In my skull
Where the darkness is deep

You were the world
You were home
You were holy to me

Now you're a worm
In my throat
You don't care if I breathe

Death is my favorite daydream
I waste all my time being wounded
I struggle to sleep
My heart full of rot and of ruin
Your name in my teeth
Has swollen my tongue up with bruises
Soft when I speak
I'm sorry I drowned you in sewage

You were the world
You were home
You were holy to me

Now you're a worm
In my skull
Where the darkness is deep

You were the world
You were home
You were holy to me

Now you're a worm
In my throat
You don't care if I breathe

I saw you fall in love with the sky
And that's when I died
