I can't allow myself to breathe
And so my lungs are caving in
Because I can't take in the air
For it's poisoned with my sin
So here I suffocate
With nothing left to do
Until you pull me close and whisper
"I will die for you"
You kiss me bittersweetly
But I taste approaching death
You offered your life, so I took it
As I inhaled your breath
I felt your spirit leave
And now I don't know what to do
Overcome by guilt for accepting your life
For how can I even live without you?
I thought I lost you forever
And so I jumped into the sea
I wanted to perish with you
But you came back for me
You carried me through a tunnel
Speeding away from this black lagoon
To an enchanted somewhere far away
From the vultures and their wicked tune
Landing gently on a private beach
The portal behind us, closes
The breeze carries with it, a song
And the ocean is made out of roses
But these flowers have no thorns
I'll get lost benieth the waves
I'll drown in happy thoughts
And pray I never get saved
You took my fate, my death as your own
But that's not what God designed
If you hadn't returned as this angel I see
I would have been left behind
You tell me there's only one place
To escape my pain and despair
So you died and then came back to earth
Just so you could take me there
But how did you know God would let you return
When I was supposed to die that day
You say "I knew I loved you enough"
"Not even heaven could keep me away"
