ZulFaqqar Shams - Myself lyrics

[Verse 1] You were dancing for years on the edge of that cliff I was squirming in bed with the sheets in my grip You were praising the poison they taught you to sip I was endlessly helpless while watching you slip I the shiver up your spine You're the quiver on my lips I'm the rivers in your eyes You're the pain in my ribs When we went out of sync and abandoned the ship The mercy had drowned, I was senselessly ripped No I'm starting to drift as emotions are shifting They deepen the void just to widen the rift Cause the trick is to trip on the swing of your hips Though my demon's impatient, my angels are swift The girl is the test but the lady's the gift So the boy will demand, but the man will resist I'm lowering my gaze so the veil can be lifted To grant me a dance to the pulse of that wrist [Hook] Do you want to know What I saw inside your soul? You're shivering cold Just break out that world Cause I can't watch you fall [Verse 2] I'm living to listen, you're dying to speak We're reversing the roles cause the will is too weak I'll only pose the questions if you take the leap But I'll only find the answers that you dare to seek The mountain you give me, I'll climb to the peak While ignoring your warnings cause I like it sleep You can tend to my wounds, or leave me to bleed Just don't ask me to stay - you're too precious to plead I'll be dodging the serpents beginning to creep And disturbing the vultures pretending to sleep You can hide in my night while we dream on repeat And I'll show you the path through the lies and deceit The monster that haunts us, I aim to defeat To retrieve all the treasures you're frightened to keep Whether I smile at your face, or drop at your feet Its love that I saw, so I know what I'll reap [Hook] Do you want to know What I saw inside your soul? You're shivering cold Just break out that world Cause I can't watch you fall
