Your Name In Vain Hence These Tears (hinc Illae Lacrimae)
All the feelings that you tried to hide
With the shattered tears from your eyes
That now caress the dirt
But don't assume that it was all too late
Just hold your head
And don't get left behind
I felt you lungs collapse
While I held you in my arms
And I burned for you
I'll burn for this and
When my love fell away
But I laid your head to rest
As I burned for you
I'll burn for this and
Your heart was like a bulletproof vest
When they said it was all too much for you
And you shuddered in my grasp
Your heart betrayed you
Betrayed you
But would you drown a thousand angels
Just to die beside the one you love?
The one you love
But why can't you open your eyes and see
That I am everything you need?
Why would you run away?
When I could be everything
And the doctors came in just in time
To see the devil run off with the life you once adored
And they plugged you into the machine
To keep your body awake
While I cried for you
I cried for you
But why can't you open your eyes and see
That I am everything you need?
Everything you need
Why would you run away?
When I could be everything
Your hand inside mine now
You squeeze for comfort
Now scream pretty for me
My hand inside your chest
As I felt your heart collapse
With the sound of a gun
Oh oh you cry
And you’re taking the life you were given
With the blackened circles under your eyes
I fear and hear
My bride has a cancer
It’s eating away and taking her life
But why can't you open your eyes and see
That I am everything you need?
Everything you need
Why would you run away?
When I could be everything
