I Know What I Have to Do (Disconnect Myself)

from OIIO by Ode to Oscillator

lyrics

Today you're the recipient of foul news,
And trust me, it's not the way I wanted this to end.
Understand what we had was near perfection,
But the neglection of my obsession would have left you in deception.
So I held out as long as I could.
I held out because I didn't want to face the world,
And as I watched you walk around in bliss,
I had to conjure lies to hide my shamefullness.
Each lie dropped me into deeper & darker holes,
So dark I thought I would forever be alone.

Alone, alone, forever be alone.

That's when I saw the face of someone,
Someone who offered me a taste of something I had.
Something I'd never known,
You opened up to let me inside of you.
That's when I saw the face of someone,
Someone who offered me a taste of something I had.
Something I'd never known, never known, never known.

Delay oncoming flagrant hues,
The beat of my heart swells throughout your universe,
And then it's all brought back into perspective,
But the questions that I'm left with fuel your might hand's oppression,
And I held out as long as I could.
I held out because solely I can't block this urge,
To be without is never to exist,
To be with is something I never could resist

Resist, resist, I never could resist,
Subsist, subsist, unable to subsist.

That's when I saw the face of someone,
Someone who offered me a taste of something I had.
Something I'd never known,
You opened up to let me inside of you.
That's when I saw the face of someone,
Someone who offered me a taste of something I had.
Something I'd never known, never known, never known.

I can still feel a reaction but you've killed my lust for action,
The entire time I knew what I had to do,
Disconnect myself, severe the me from you,
But instead I did what I wanted to.

That's when I saw the face of someone,
Someone who offered me a taste of something I had.
Something I'd never known,
You opened up to let me inside of you.
That's when I saw the face of someone,
Someone who offered me a taste of something I had.
Something I'd never known, never known, never known.
