I'll pretend
Once again
That I don't feel bad
I'll pretend that I don't feel anything at all
While I slowly strip my walls that are already empty and stranded
While I quickly rediscover how depressed my soul is and how hollow the hole in my heart is
I'll pretend
Once again
That I'm okay,
but on the inside I don't feel like being here at all
I just want to wallow and listen to music until I have to pretend again or figure out how to end my pain
So I'll pretend
That once again
That I don't feel sad
I'll pretend that nothing hurts me until I wallow again
I pretend a lot lately.
[please] dont grab her hand
and flash that silly smile
when shes sad
[stop] being someone elses thoughts
late at night
when they drift off into there dreams
while i am
plagued by the thought of you
you’re [forgetting] the way you
wrapped your arms around me
and held my head against your heart
when i was drowning in my own sorrow,
breaking.
the thought
of losing my only love
was tearing me apart
you’re killing [me]
when you look at me
with a lost light in your eyes
that i used to give you
im so sorry
i couldn’t love you
the way you should have been loved
im so sorry,
my only love
I cannot feel anything anymore,
it's as if every single drop of my blood
drained out of me overnight,
I fight the empty feeling,
search for your written words,
only to find empty pages.

I've been told,
read a million harsh riddles
about the stages of heartbreak,
it's a slow & painful process.

The sad journey begins
when you feel
nothing inside,
no warmth
runs through you veins,
you lie looking for answers,
bloodless & alone,
with no angels
singing any lullabies,
wondering how you
will ever survive without her.

Here is where the devil lies
Where darkness brings your fears to life

You can't undo what has been done
There's no escape, nowhere to run

Leave the life you've known behind
Let the flames consume your mind

The gates of Hell are open wide
Here the drums, nowhere to hide

Don't you scream from the pain you've earned
You played with fire, and darling you've been burned
