He is Heroin

by bree-anna

Let me ask Does the guilt crush you? Until you can’t feel anymore Does it kill you? Until you are too numb to breathe Does it leave you empty? To where you chase pointless hope Because YOUR lies crushed ME Where I cannot feel They killed me Where I’m too numb to breathe They’ve left me empty Where I chase pointless hope That one-day maybe, you’ll truly love me You say you do You’ve convinced yourself But if you did You wouldn’t look Somewhere else Im paralyzed with pain A numbing sting An empty stain Every day It becomes a part of me In every way Who I am An empty shell Feelings are dead My mind can’t tell It’s complete dread I try to heal To forgive I try to trust You once again but in return I have a guarded heart With a dark soul, like fire it burns Are we better apart? You’ve tainted me Every breath You’ve killed my soul I’m ready to greet death But I tell my lungs They can’t give out I tell my heart To love without doubt I tell myself we must work through Keep going together A couple of two Nausea every time You leave my sight I lay awake every night You are like heroin My one true addiction I have to fight Every dose keeps me alive But every time Its kills me inside So tell me Does the guilt make you feel alive? The adrenaline rush of a new girl To kill inside Another victim to get addicted To your sweet demeanor outside Tell me Does the same thing That keeps you alive Also kill you deep inside?
