The Living lyrics

Stopping your heartbeat But the parts stay in their place Call on yourself tonight Don't back away Scratches on skin move slow Put it back put it back down low I felt a trace of your craving The living sometimes will wait their whole lives Today you take mine Strength of a god as I open my hands to you Send all my blood to you Till your oceans have filled right through And on the shored I will wait for days It's not a cause for alarm It's a strange and lovely place Your absence makes me strong So here I will wait, I will wait, I will wait The living sometimes Today I told it goodbye A creature dead in your jaws Strength of a god as I open my hands to you Here in these oceans I wait as you call You said you would come back, you told me yourself Light will escape you wherever you are So in darkness I will wait
