Your hands shake, we stand outside,
Cold fingers gently grazing my cheek,
It's cloudy, the wind rages around us,
Sky looks desolate and bleak.

When you strip me with your eyes I cry,
Scrubbing skin with my sleeve,
I hate for you to see me like this,
This ache I cannot relieve.

Withdraw from your cell, hold me,
Only you ease my pain,
Told me it would be okay,
Peace I cannot attain.

To experience this void is torture,
No happiness to be had,
Being apart from you so long,
Is slowly driving my heart mad.

I miss easy days and nights we shared
Before dishonesty blew us apart
When we were eachothers best friend
It was much better at the start

Poured my heart into your ears
Told every fear, scar, and tale
Let you see ugly parts
Dirt beneath each fingernail

Hit me up every day that first summer
All your free time spent in my kiss
I could see feelings for me were real
Your company is what I really miss

Never were into dancing
Self-concious, shy, scared someone else might see
When we were out and music came on
Had no problem swaying with me

Would go where we wanted, wild like horses
By your side I felt like royalty
Shackled to your lap, my discovered throne,
Had no crown yet still a queen with your arms around me

Began over a bottle of Smirnoff
You coming to my house
Little did I know in the moment
All the worries and intense feelings you'd rouse

I am not saying I regret taking a chance with you
Can hardly imagine a world otherwise
I exist in the confines of my decisions
You inside labyrinth of lies

Fell for my passiobate spirit
I was still full of life; innocent
My love for the universe has faded since then
You witnessed my sparkle before it went

It was winter as soon as we blinked our eyes
Cracked like ice our hearts were doomed to break
Shards slicing through tender tethers
You apologize for making yet another mistake

Closeness that once was so simple to find
Disappeared when demons took charge
Spent many nights fighting them, and you
Dangling issues powerful and large

Lullabies switched to sad reverie
With every careless word and decision
Can you remember who we were before
Lies put us in this prison?

Loved you more than I loved myself
Loved you far too much for my own good
Gave you all I could, and would do it again
Before we broke we had something pure and good
