dead star heart. Songtext
von Bitter Ends

You found me in the ruins of myself
Picking through the pieces like they meant something
I tried to glue the fractures for your sake
But every time I stand, the fog lines start humming

You want a lighthouse in a storm I can′t control
But I'm just flickering words in a broken soul
You ask for strength and I offer what I can
Shaking hands, thin breath, barely a man

I′m sorry I can't hold you up
I'm sorry that I fall apart
I′m trying but I′m not enough
I'm dragging a dead star hard

If I could be your anchor
I′d sink before I let you drown
You keep stitching all your fears into my ribs
Hoping I can carry what you never say


But every whisper starts to feel like a weight
And I bend until I'm breaking in quiet ways
I wanna save you without losing myself
But every rescue turns into a farewell

I hear your voice in places where the light won′t go
You're reaching out but I′m swallowed by the undertow
I'm sorry I can't hold you up
I′m sorry that I fall apart

I′m trying but I'm not enough
I′m dragging a dead star hard
If I could be your anchor
I'd sink before I let you drown

Drown, yeah
I can′t be the pillar you want me to be
I'm cracking at the seams
I′m begging to breathe

But I'd break every bone I have
If it meant you'd finally sleep tonight
I′m not your cure
I′m just someone trying


I'm sorry I can′t hold you up
I'm sorry that I fall apart
I′m trying but I'm not enough
I′m dragging a dead star hard

If I could be your anchor
I'd sink before I let you drown
Drown
