The Gloom In The Corner – D.I.M.A lyrics

“I just wanted to make you feel the same pain that I felt.”

Step left, step right
Take it easy, one dream at a time
Spin around by the fire
And dance all night
I wish this feeling would never end
‘Cause when I wake up
I start to loathe again

A penny for your thoughts?
You'd need blood money for mine
Tell me once again how I make it out alright?
A waltz for every time memories fluctuate
How do I wake up when I've been dreaming
For 2 years straight?

We dance around in circles
Like puppets on strings
You tell me to wake up
But I want to keep dreaming
She haunts me like a ghost
Burdened by shame
When I look in your eyes
You die in my arms, once again

Lilliputian snippets of what once was
A myrmidon to my deepest cycle
I cave to perpetual loss
Until we meet again, my love

I question our meaning
The meeting, the haunting and everything in between
Every time we meet I fall into the ocean in your eyes
Into a slip, we're so careless

We dance around in circles
Like puppets on strings
You tell me to wake up
But I want to keep dreaming
She’s haunts me, like a ghost
Burdened by shame
When I look in your eyes
You die in my arms once again

Wither away
Like the paper in the flames
Like the melancholic thoughts
That stain my brain

We dance around in circles
Like puppets on strings
I wish I couldn't wake up
And leave you again

Dance around in circles
Like puppets on strings
I wish I couldn't wake up
‘Cause I want to keep dreaming
Stop haunting like a ghost
Burdened by shame
When I look in your eyes
You die in my arms...
When I look in your eyes
I see you die in my arms again

“Only when I’m sleeping did I feel truly alive. At least I was with the one I love. But our love, the meaning of my retribution, was built on a fucking fallacy. I can’t live with this; with what I’ve done. I killed you my love, and I’m killing this dream. You can finally be at rest. I just don’t think we’re meant to be. I just don’t think I’m meant to be loved at all.”

“We're stuck in a limbo
Between what God wants and what we need
An angel shouldn't see the devil;
Like spectres shouldn't meet flesh and bone.”
Because Rachel, my dear, we're worlds apart
And that's the pact that we should keep
So, when you fly up high
Just know that when I fall, we all fall down

I can't take you dying in my arms
Over and over again
I can't stand to see you like this; as you see me
I'm broken and useless
I've lost everyone I love
So maybe, just maybe
It's time to let me go

Two minds, made as one; one of violence, one of love
Two minds fighting as one; the Devil, the Reaper
I know now the blood on my hands is the one of my loves
Sherlock, the Devil and Jay the Reaper; our mind will die as one
