I wrote this song out of anger towards regret. It's full of emotion and, I believe it has some catchy lines in it...

It's really about keeping a secret from some one for their own good. It made me feel like a liar, so that inspired me to write the lyrics, full of energy and defiance.

I am but a solomn wretch
Buried in my skin
With a heart as pure as water,
And a mind deeper than sin.

Sick, and ill my poor soul walks
Wandering in filth
My misdeeds are none-too-common
But would it not be a wealth...

Chorus 1: To bleed love,
Measure your heart by your every breath?
Kill the instantaneous law that says:
Love is only measured by truth.
Force this ember to be a fire
A bright healthy fire,
But would you still love me
If I weren't a liar?

You are but a flawless lover,
Buried in my heart
I know that I've sinned against you
But I wasn't guilty from the start
Now, cast down all of this ignorance
I have been a fool
Almost lifeless, and oh, so empty
Too blinded to know what to do

Chorus 2: Mystery, come and play
A game with me
What a temptress you are
Fooling me with this disease
Convincing me that I'm no more
Than a prophet who blindly speaks
Give me my last breath now,
But this time, let it be satisfactory.

Why can't I master life as an art?
I'll make some portrait of my soul.
I'd paint my heart a deep blood red
And learn the art of saying no
Oh, anger flows up through my veins
This burning sensation kills.
But the pain teaches me my final lesson
Everyone has a will.

Chorus 3: So bleed love.
Measure your heart by your every breath.
What a temptress I am
Fooling myself with my own diseases.
Force this ember to be a fire.
A bright healthy fire.
But would you still love me
If I weren't a liar?
