Lyrics

[Intro]
In an empty room where love once was
[Verse 1]
Sadness running through my mind
She wouldn't want to see me live this way
So let it take over, knowing
[Verse 2]
She'd want me to try and find
Happiness in a cloudless sky
So let it take over, knowing
[Bridge]
This procedure and its subject
Taking and leaving of emotion
[Bridge]
This receiver
Will it welcome
Will it reject
What's been given and destroy all?
[Outro]
If it goes wrong, there's no denying
Vantablack in a starless sky
So let it take over
Graft vs. host
