Behave - Social Repose

When I look into your eyes

All I see in you is me

A perfect portrait stands there

Holding on so desperately

I don’t care what you think

I don’t mind where you’ll go

But I hope you know the weight

Has broke my back, it’s starting to show

I saw no ghost

There was no death

But on the day you left

You whimpered out your dying breath

I saw your sickness

I am the witness

Need to amputate the curse

Before it gets worse

Live or die

Either is fine

You’re dying slow

I hope you know

It’s just so hard to say goodbye

I held a funeral in my mind

Cause on that the day I saw you died

I don’t care if you’re still alive

It all just happened in my mind

Forced myself to leave you behind

Maybe I need some time

To remove my reflection from your eyes

A chariot

Dressed in black

I’ll read your parting hymns

There’s no turning back

I’ll make you cry

But a little lost love is a love not meant to be

I’m a lone survivor or the only one that didn’t flee

Carry out your casket

I didn’t ask yet if it’s appropriate to pretend we haven’t met yet

Continue grieving

You’re leaving

There’s a thousand ways to say goodbye but I’m the one still breathing

Live or die

Either is fine

You’re dying slow

I hope you know

It’s just so hard to say goodbye

I held a funeral in my mind

Cause on that the day I saw you died

I don’t care if you’re still alive

It all just happened in my mind

Forced myself to leave you behind

Maybe I need some time

To remove my reflection from your eyes

You propose if we put both our heads together

Pull the trigger

Bleed into me

In hopes that at least

You’ll be the last thing that keeps me

From forgetting completely

But I’ll protest

You caused this mess

I need to defeat you

Before I become you

With a melancholy stare

Emotions stripped bare

You’ve dug your grave

Now lay down and behave

Lay down and behave

It’s just so hard to say goodbye

I held a funeral in my mind

Cause on that the day I saw you died

I don’t care if you’re still alive

It just happened in my mind (Lay down and behave)

Forced myself to leave you behind

Maybe I need some time (Lay down and behave)

To remove my reflection from your eyes

Lay down and behave

Lay down and behave

Lay down and behave

Lay down in your grave
