Bookaria - Love That’s Killing Me

I can't afford to fall for you
I know the cost everything
I love becomes a target in the end
You're already caught in the crossfire
I've brought
Loving you will put you in the line of fire again
Snow turns to silver in your chestnut hair
Your slender fingers trace the relic on my skin
For weeks
I've sworn
I'd stop that
I would never dare
But every second pulls me further in
Between the shadow and the light
In one last breath
Beyond the line there's nothing left to save
We try to starve this hunger after death
But now the flesh nor fire knows how to behave
Too late to tell whose hunger drew us near
Whose fever made us reckless enough to fall
I pushed you back until the truth was clear
The bond had never made me want you at all
I caught it lust because it's easier to believe
I caught it theirs because the truth got deep
But now there's nothing left for me to grieve
It's love that's killing me
It's love that's killing me
We caught a borrowed lust
A sweet delusion
Until their presence vanished from the room
The snow can't cool the pool beneath my skin
And still my shadows gather close to you
Thunder clears my head, you turn and run
I should be grateful
I could let you go
But only when you're gone, when we're undone and
I face the truth
I fought so hard to know
One, one breath, I still can
Breathe out, I can now
One step, already too late
Two, we tear the boundary down
Snow, turns silver, thin
Gray scar, shrink
Burns hotter, glow, too far
Shadows at your feet
Sparks across skin, thunder
Splits us clean
Too late, I think
Between the shadow and the light
And need one last breath
Beyond the line, there's nothing left to save
We tried to starve this hunger half to death
But now the flesh, no fire, knows how to behave
Too late to tell whose hunger drew us near
Whose fever made us reckless enough to fall
I pushed you back until the truth was clear
The bond had never made me want you at all
I caught it lost because that's easier to believe
I caught it theirs because the truth cut deep
But now there's nothing left for me to grieve
It's love that's killing me
It's love that's killing me
I blame the bond
I blame desire
I blame the dragons for me
But none of them will when
I was burning
It's love that's killing me
I blame the bond
I blame desire desire
I'll blame the violence
I'll speed the thunder
The cause of none when
I was burning
It's all that's killing me oh
