Текст песни Winter Hotel - A Poison

Оригинальный текст песни A Poison

Leave me to this dying grace

As carvings of regret across my face
Can tell you of my hollow chest
And in its every rise and fall
I failed at every moral test
As if I’d never tried at all

I hate the way my breath infects my lungs
And keeps me still against this canvas that I taint;

I told myself
it’s not my fault
Each demon is a culprit of my sin
But truthfully
it rests with me
For opening
the door to let them in
A poison, perpetual. Every passing year
Congealed in every season, trapped in paint

I told myself
it’s not my fault
Each demon is a
culprit of my sin

A poison, perpetual

So every day becomes a waking nightmare
Darting glances, scanning for a threat that never comes
I am a curse upon this earth,
I am sorrow
I am a blight

I must be an abnormality of birth
For I have burdened every spine on which I’ve leaned;
Break the pattern into which I’ve sown
Every sinew must be cleaned
