[Verse 1]
You were once a radiant stranger
Who figured dimly in the back
But when I felt my stomach seething
You kept your hand over my mouth
[Verse 2]
You were just an apparition
Trembling vaguely in my wounds
Until I took you to the river
To exorcise your bleeding ghost
[Bridge]
As the night bleeds into morning
I can't move outside your space
Assign the strangest appellations
To the movement in your brain
I can't shake this subtle feeling
That settles deep beneath my veins
I can't take these limbs for granted
I can't say it to your face
