Counterparts - Whispers of Your Death lyrics

Begging from the floor
As you stare in the face of starvation
Sacrifice myself to secure your safety
I choked on the taste of tears
Til both of my eyes ran dry
Refusing to believe false prophets
That claimed you would not survive

It's hard to breathe without you
Sleeping on my chest
Sick and withering from the
Whispers of your death
Forever your saviour, as much as you are mine
And for that I promise to protect you
Until the day I die

Clinging to what little you had come with
Until my fingernails scratchеd
Through to bone
Collapsing in arms of uncertainty
Knowing I could nevеr let you go

Tearing out what's left of my insides
To spare you from your sickness
I promise to protect you until the day I die

Make your cancer mine make your cancer mine

It's hard to breathe without you
Sleeping on my chest
Sick and withering from the
Whispers of your death
Forever your saviour, as much as you are mine
And for that I promise to protect you
Until the day I die

Make your cancer mine make your cancer mine
