[Verse 1]
You built my ending in your sleep
Sketched my grave in crooked ink
Woke up smiling at the scene
Said it was just a joke
I think
You set the table
Poured that glass
Called it love
Called it relief
I drank it down to make you proud
Burn on my tongue
Bloom of disbelief
[Chorus]
I created your death from a dream
Then you made it real for me
You followed through
Just like you said
With the poison you poured in my head
Every sweet word tinged in steel
Now I taste what you call real
I created your death from a dream
But you made a martyr out of me
[Verse 2]
You dressed your damage up in lace
Pinned the blame onto my chest
Said
“If you leave
I’ll fade away”
So I stayed and starved the rest
You kept a ledger of my sins
Paid me back in quiet rage
Soft confession
Sharpened grin
Locked me in your painted cage
[Chorus]
I created your death from a dream
Then you made it real for me
You followed through
Just like you said
With the poison you poured in my head
Every sweet word tinged in steel
Now I taste what you call real
I created your death from a dream
But you made a martyr out of me
[Bridge]
Were you saving me
Or breaking me?
Hard to tell in this kind of light
Did you lie to me
Or teach me?
Maybe both can still be right
[Chorus]
I created your death from a dream
Then you made it real for me
You followed through
Just like you said
With the poison you poured in my head
Every sweet word tinged in steel
Now I taste what you call real
I created your death from a dream
But you only buried me alive
