I'll carry the load
Heavy as a stone
When the only thing I leave behind are weeds and broken bones
Black trees lining the road
Silent and secretly I stole
I dug holes to feed my soul

It was me
It was me
Slowly you fall asleep

And the fool got caught in the trap
Just a glow in the night
Oh you always strike the matches like a villain

It was me
It was me
Slowly you fall asleep

The venom I spread could kill a whole pack of wolves
And your head is full of it
Oh I swear you are so precious to me
But this is as far as I can go my love
This is as far as I can go my love
Rough cheeks rubbin' the white cold ground

Shallow we're breathing in and out
I sow the seeds of a rhizome
The ivy has grown up the walls of your house
And I outline our story just to make
It sound like nothing really happened
Things that you know to be true

It was me
It was me
Slowly you fall asleep

It was me
It was me
Slowly you fall asleep

This is as far as I can go my love
This is as far as I can go my love
Oh this is as far as I can go my love
Oh this is as far as I can go my love
