I don't know if you can see, What I have become For so long and so far, Has been the distance that I run Yet no matter how hard I try To stand against the cold It freezes me straight to the core And so I stand alone I found you, I fell for you I guess it's meant to be The strength of my true self And the other turned its cheek Surrounded by the bitterness I fought for what I love But now this Hell bares witness To see it's not enough... Oh how I love to love you so, To touch your pretty face The moment I laid eyes on you My anguish was erased But when you're far from my reach My arms are filled with lead A poison spreading through my mind A fate to strike me dead I saw you as my everything, Isolation was my foe So hard it seemed at times to me To let that poison go I knew it wasn't possible I said it so myself But you have always loved me like Nobody else The mirror shows the sticks and stones That broke my very heart It's held together by my faith A faith that hates to last So I push it further and further still I want to stay by you But the voices whisper in my ear IM NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU!! Oh how I love to love you so, To touch your pretty face The moment I laid eyes on you My anguish was erased But when you're far from my reach My arms are filled with lead A poison spreading through my mind A fate to strike me dead It's hard to live with myself Knowing only I care The second one never begun He hates the way I stare You're so ******* beautiful It really makes me think Some stories are repeats Here's Beauty, here's the Beast! No matter what she says to me I'll always love you, you know That's why I'll never say goodbye I'll hold out for hope Oh how I love to love you so, To touch your pretty face The moment I laid eyes on you My anguish was erased But when you're far from my reach My arms are filled with lead A poison spreading through my mind A fate to strike me dead This poison taking over me, I figured out its name... The poison is Obsession And it will take me to the grave... The poison is Obsession And won't miss my dying day...
