The Apathy Eulogy - Hold The Ones You Love Close lyrics

We're all giving up our lives for a rare breed of friend Hold the ones you love close Keep your jealousy closer still Keep your mind, keep your heart, keep your will But please let me in Let me inside I want to feel alive It's got to be a flame If you want to feel the burn It's time to get lost outside And never go back home I need to believe The heart on my sleeve Used to be bleeding But now all the blood's run dry If you'll only be The completion of me I'll agree to try We're all giving up our lives for a rare breed of friend Hold the ones you love close Keep your enemies closer still Keep your mind, keep your heart, keep your will But please let me in Let me inside I need I need to feel alive It's got to be a flame If you want to feel the burn It's time to get lost outside And never go back home I need to believe The heart on my sleeve Used to be bleeding But now all the blood's run dry If you'll only be The completion of me I'll agree to try I can't offer you anything More than myself And I'm not even sure I can offer you that I'm the closest a man can get To a disaster If you'd only be The completion of me I'd be the closest I can be To alive To hold the affections of such as you Is beyond my reach Your parents' broken porcelain Resounding heavily on your ears Don't be a victim of them The walls that damaged people build To hold the world at bay This is who we are and how we'll stay
