[Intro – Ancient Lyre + Slow Deep Bass] [Low Raspy Female] There's something In my blood now I feel it When I'm still Not enough To stop my heart Just enough To make it cold [Slow Hypnotic Beat Enters] [Verse 1 – Low Raspy Female] It moves beneath My skin at night Slow and quiet Like a dream Every year I feel a little less Of who I used to be I used to ache For human hands I used to miss The morning sun Now I watch The daylight disappear And feel Almost nothing [Pre-Chorus – Breathy Female] Maybe poison Doesn't always kill Maybe sometimes It just Changes you [Chorus – Melancholic Female] Venom Running through me Slowly Turning warmth to ice Venom Never ending Taking something Every night It doesn't stop My breathing It doesn't Take my life It only takes The woman I still carry Deep inside [Extended Deep Ethnotronica Instrumental] [Immersive Sub-Bass + Sparse Frame Drums] [Ancient Lyre + Mournful Bowed Strings] [Verse 2 – Low Raspy Female] I used to cry When someone found me Now I barely Turn my head I used to mourn The stone around me Now I walk Among the dead I used to hate What I'd become That hatred Kept me warm Now even anger Feels like something I belonged to Long before [Deep Bass Passage] [Breathy Female] I miss Missing you I miss Wanting anything [Instrumental] [Chorus – Layered Female Vocals] Venom Running through me Slowly Turning warmth to ice Venom Never ending Taking something Every night It doesn't stop My breathing It doesn't Take my life It only takes The woman I still carry Deep inside [Extended Instrumental] [Slow Rolling Bass + Restrained Ritual Percussion] [Brief Wordless Female Lament] [Bridge – Low Chest Voice] Maybe one day There'll be nothing No sorrow No rage No memory Of flowers No girl Before the snakes [Breathy Female] And I'll still Be standing here Alive But no longer Know why [Long Instrumental Passage] [Lyre + Bowed Strings + Deep Sub-Bass] [Final Chorus – Fragile Female Rising] Venom Running through me I can feel Her slipping away Venom Keep me breathing While you take Her place If someday I forget her If her memory Finally dies Let the last thing I remember Be the warmth Before the ice [Extended Instrumental Outro] [Ancient Lyre Slowly Fades] [Low Raspy Female] The venom Never killed me It just... Stayed
