The Remains
Yearning in the Night: Echoes of Longing and Obsession
Lyrics
I have a bad dream where you're holding me down in my sleep
I have a disturbing dream where you restrain me while I'm asleep.
I wish I could reply I know I shouldn't but I try
I desire to respond, though I acknowledge it might not be wise.
When the shivers down my spine they tuck me in for the night
The sensations down my spine signal bedtime; the setting is eerie.
Clock chimes, foxes screaming outside, the ghosts are waiting in line
The clock sounds, foxes wail, and ghosts await, creating a haunting atmosphere.
When I turn off the lights you arrive
Upon turning off the lights, you appear.
Just in time
You arrive at the perfect moment.
What will we find?
Anticipation about what will be discovered.
I wanna light a fire in you're eyes and bring you back to life
I want to ignite passion in your eyes and revive you.
I wanna make a home in you're bones and calcify my place
I aim to establish a home within your essence and solidify my presence.
In you're remains, I'll stay and lie awake
In your remains, I'll remain and stay awake.
You're remains, I'll take and wait
Your remains, I'll take and patiently wait.
Another excuse so I can visit the scene of the crime
Creating another reason to revisit the scene of the emotional offense.
It's here on the slab the only place that I'm likely to find any evidence
It's on the table where I may find evidence that you were once mine.
Proving that once you were mine
I arrange your hair, sewing and preserving your skin to fuel my fantasies.
I brush you're hair to the side
Acknowledging the intimate connection we once shared.
I thread and stitch and embalm you're skin so I can further fantasies
Engaging in symbolic acts to prolong the fantasy.
My prize
You are my prized possession.
You're blood drips like wine
Your blood is significant, and I cherish it.
I swallow every time
I consume it every time.
Clicking my heels, wishing for home
Expressing a desire to return home by clicking heels.
The stories that you're body show are comfort for my pillow
The stories your body tells provide comfort for my pillow.
If I can retain a message or clue
If I can retain a message or clue about our connection.
Can I keep lying here rotting away with you?
Contemplating whether I can endure decay alongside you.
With you?

I wanna light a fire in you're eyes and bring you back to life
I want to revive the passion in your eyes and bring you back to life.
I wanna make a home in you're bones and calcify you're name
I want to establish a home within your essence and solidify your name.
I wanna light a fire in you're eyes and bring you back to life
I want to revive the passion in your eyes and bring you back to life.
I wanna make a home in you're bones and calcify my place
I want to establish a home within your essence and solidify my presence.
In you're remains, I'll stay and lie awake
In your remains, I'll remain and stay awake.
You're remains, I'll take and wait
Your remains, I'll take and patiently wait.
