Inspired by Kyoumi's cover of Unravel from Tokyo Ghoul.

Oh, won't you tell me? Please just tell me
Explain how this should work
Well now who could it be, that lives inside of me?
I'm broken, lying helpless, shattered
Surrounded by the world

And yet, you're smiling bright
Completely blind to life

My ruptured lungs they were left this way
For once, I'm out of breath
The truth I seek, never felt so bleak but
I maintain my depth

Freeze

I'm breakable
Unbreakable
I'm shaking yet
Unshakable
Until the day that you find me

I'll stand here
Existing and feeling wretched existence
Consuming life-force til I grow distant
Don't bother searching for somebody like me
A fading no one
I don't want to hurt you, It's not my nature
A monster born from dusk to dawn can't be your saviour
Remember the me, the way I used to be

As who I still should be

The isolation spreads and tears
Those happy days pierce into me
These lonely memories cease to care
They spread throughout my history

I'll never move
I'll never lose
I'll never move
I'll never lose
I'll never move
I'll never lose you
Unraveling the world

At once, I start changing
Yet everything's remaining
These lives I felt would join as one
They fade away before they've begun
I'm breakable; unbreakable
I'm shaking yet, unshakable
Until these hands contaminate you

I'll stand here existing and feeling wretched existence
Consuming life-force til I grow distant
Don't bother searching for somebody like me.
A fading no one.
This lonely space, held into place by someone crazy
Shall melt away like dawn to day as things get hazy
So please think of me, the way I used to be

As who I really should be

So don't forget me
You can't forget me
You won't forget me
Please don't forget me

With changing inside I'm completely paralyzed
Remaining corrupt as I wish for paradise

Remember the me, the way I used to be.

Oh, won't you tell? Oh, please just tell

Well now who could it be, that lives inside of me?
