Counterparts - A Eulogy for Those Still Here lyrics

I offered you my wings
(I offered you my wings)
In hopes you would take flight
(In hopes you would take flight)
Salvaging the skin of open arms
Grieving though you haven't left my side

Deception will eclipse our sinking sun
Likening our form to silhouettes
While the light between us dims

Praying I could pull you out of hell
Though you grew dependent on it’s warmth
As you gathered bones from helping hands
In search of sedation: salvation sacrificed
Replaced by the breath of strangled throats

I offered you my wings
(I offered you my wings)
In hopes you would take flight
(In hopes you would take flight)
Salvaging the skin of open arms
Grieving though you haven't left my side

A mutual disease in different forms
Nourishing the need to escape
From the curse of consciousness

Imprisoned by fixation
I understand your pain
Surrendering to my own source of slow death
Praying I could pull you out of Hell

(A eulogy for those still here
A eulogy for those still here)

Grieving (Praying I could pull you out of Hell)
Though you haven’t left my side
Knowing (Though you grew dependent on it’s warmth)
That one day, you’ll disappear

Grieving
Grieving though you haven't left my side
Knowing
Knowing that one day, you’ll disappear
Grieving
Grieving though you haven't left my side
As I write a eulogy for those still here

A eulogy for those still here
A eulogy for those still here
A eulogy for those still here
A eulogy for those still here
