Tied to My Neck Converge

You told me nine times before
And you said that her touch was not love all these years
You said that she stole and lied
And you said to be brave like me

And I couldn't believe when you said outlive
But I must come out and face the unwilling terms
These eyes they are old
And can only focus on the son that I was
The wrong that I was

I tried to gape the teeth
Just so the water could fill my lungs
And all this time I thought I was drowning
And all this time she made me
And you caged me and beat me

These shackles reek of your cologne
And manipulative phrases
She is dying
And I wish Hell upon you one thousand times a day

I have her graft inside of me
She sewed this body and made these eyes
She put them in my head and gave me life
You gave me hate, greed, confusion
And a shimmering blurred backhand of your affection
