Don't waste your touch,
you won't feel anything.
Or were you sent to save me?
I've thought too much,
you won't find anything
worthy of redeeming.
Yo he estado aquî muchas veces antes y regreso
to...
Break down
and cease all feeling,
burn now
what once was breathing. Reach out
and you may
take my heart away.


Imperfect cry
and scream in ecstasy
so what befalls the flawless?
Look what I've built.
It shines so beautifully!
Now watch as it destroys me.
Y regreso aquî otra vez
y comienzo
to...
Break down
and cease all feeling,
burn now
what once was breathing.
Reach out
and you may
take my heart away.

I left it all behind
and never said good-bye.
I left it all to die.
I saw its birth.
I watched it grow.
I felt it change me.
I took the life.
I ate it slow.
Now it consumes me.
