Lyrics

The Bible used to know my name with Heaven's weeping holy tears Love that tastes like sweet champagne, I'm chasing after hollow fears I've been staring at walls and I've been praying to the ceiling fan That moves the air in the room in a way that no human can I've been ignoring my calls And I've been hoping for another man to sweep her off her feet So she's happy without my hands 'cause I'm so ready to be loved But I can only pour out once I'm full, I'm ready to turn back to dust But I cannot ignore the fact that I always play the fool I'm sure I'm fine, I just don't wanna check or let this set A while longer feels stronger than forget That my silence is as deep as my lack of sleep My sense of peace and my lasting defeat, darling, I know this hurts But promise me someday you'll be happy so this pain means something The Bible used to know my name with Heaven's weeping holy tears Love that tastes like sweet champagne, I'm chasing after hollow fears The Bible used to know my name with Heaven's weeping holy tears Love's a loss and love's a gain, hoping I feel at home, my dear The night before our first interaction was an embrace of exploration of nothing or everything Depending on how you choose to perceive dreaming I spent an eternity in four seconds focusing on the thought That maybe love was just hormones, chemical abnormalities or social cravings But then I met myself for the first time When I made a lifelong promise that I knew I could keep because prior to my suicide I thought lifelong promises were always selfish Or at least seeded in some sort of embellished lie We choose to believe but I've been told enough times that I'm going insane Just still want to breathe The Bible used to know my name with Heaven's weeping holy tears Love that tastes like sweet champagne, I'm chasing after hollow fears The Bible used to know my name with Heaven's weeping holy tears Love's a loss and love's a gain, hoping I feel at home, my dear "I miss you so much. And I need you in my life. So please. Please stay. You're the best thing that's ever happened to me, after everything that's happened."
