Amelia can you hear
the calling of my heart?
Amelia can you see
the tears on my eyes
as I hide it through the smiles?
Amelia can you feel
the scars on my skin
inflicted by the people
I loved the most?
Amelia can you smell
the decayed and withered body
of mine
Amelia, oh my darling Amelia
can you pick up the pieces
of my broken heart?
Did you hear it shatter across the floor
the moment he said goodbye?
Did you see the way he stepped on it
The way he steps on his cigarette?
My darling Amelia
so innocent
fragile
save yourself
from all the pain
and i tell you this
because i couldn't save myself
learn from my mistakes
my darling Amelia

Amelia can you hear
the calling of my heart?
Amelia can you see
the tears on my eyes
as I hide it through the smiles?
Amelia can you feel
the scars on my skin
inflicted by the people
I loved the most?
Amelia can you smell
the decayed and withered body
of mine
Amelia, oh my darling Amelia
can you pick up the pieces
of my broken heart?
Did you hear it shatter across the floor
the moment he said goodbye?
Did you see the way he stepped on it
The way he steps on his cigarette?
My darling Amelia
so innocent
fragile
save yourself
from all the pain
and i tell you this
because i couldn't save myself
learn from my mistakes
my darling Amelia
Amelia is my younger self. if that makes any sense at all.
