Lyrics

Leviathan

"Je ne t'aime pas" "tu n'es pas mon ami" "retire tes mains"

I am the great leviathan
A creature of the deep
I was the prey to conquer
The means through which you seek release of desire
So you chased me down with a rubber band
To drink the wine from your hand
And as I lay beneath your hold
My tongue pinned by a stone
I was witness of the power play
To share the blame of quiet rape

And if you fight, if you fight
You get tired
And if you fight, if you fight
You lose something
I lost something

But who would have known
That my lover was my hunter
But I had been told
So I should have known
I should have known
But for all the sins committed
The greatest struggle is to find forgiveness
For myself, for myself

And I was swimming on the sand
Searching for the fisher of men
While you ripping the skin from my bones
You think you have won

And when you ride, when you ride
You will slide less than easy
Into my mind, into my mind
Into my mind, into my mind
Into my mind, into my mind

But who would have known
That my lover was my hunter
But I had been told
So I should have known
I should have known
But for all the sins committed
The greatest struggle is to find forgiveness
For myself, for myself, for myself

How am I supposed to be
How am I supposed to heal
If I hate you, I hate you
Can't hate you
But I hate you

Cause the replays won't go away
The replays won't go away

But who would have known
That my lover was my hunter
But I had been told
So I should have known
But for all the sins committed
The greatest struggle is to find forgiveness
For myself, for myself
