(Verse 1) Today I’m a worn-out man, tired of hunting you and finding nothing. My soul aches for times long dead, a buried secret chased you away. (Verse 2) If I could turn the hands of grief, I’d break them, bend fate, make it bleed. I’d chain you to my endless night, with fear so deep you’d never leave. (Chorus) The blood of a rabid dragon burns in me, forgive me if I wake your fear. In the deepest core of what I am, everything I am obeys your love. (Verse 3) If I must scar the world to see you smile, I’ll do it cold, again and again. I no longer mourn the sins I made, my soul is cursed, my reason decays. (Verse 4) Until you face the shadow in my skin, your eyes, your laughter guide me home. Your lips, your light, are all that’s left, the only force that feeds my pain. (Chorus) The blood of a rabid dragon burns in me, forgive me if I become your fear. In the deepest core of what I am, everything in me is ruled by your love. (Final whisper / spoken) If one day you find my sunless wound, don’t turn away — stay, watch me fall. In the dark of this hollow role, your name is the key that owns my pain.
