lyrics

the cold
the stillness, the tension
the feeling in the room
your soul
contained and rotting
in your eyes

i know you

but did you know that
i was something other
beyond your life?

the specter of your agency
burnt in your smile
you knew it was too late for me
to reconcile
my world with the impact
and the stars that burst in my mind

i still dream of the day that we all
left you behind

is this how you dreamed it would happen?
like some kind of game
i know you thought you recognized me
but we are not the same

we are not the same

i didn't know who i was
but i knew exactly
how far i had to push you

do you know that
i am something other
beyond your life?

the specter of your agency
burnt in your smile
you knew it was too late for me
to reconcile
my world with the impact
and the stars that burst in my mind

i hope you pray your feeble
doesn't follow mine.

did you think that
i was something other
you had to destroy?

Perfect Darkness

this was the final album i needed to complete my collection of every black dresses album (and ep), and this one. this one is my new favorite. it's everything i love about black dresses, especially on WHEEL OF FORTUNE. crazy to think this is 5 years old, let alone released in the same month as my birthday. one million happy fans and friends forever <3 cyrus
