it has been a while since I've seen in your eyes,
another spark to **** me.
i know it from your smile how you tell another lie,
enough of your scars to fill me.

i see you falling asleep again and I wonder,
if this will be your last.
in all the beauty you feed I'm still a stranger,
begging back my heart.

your flesh against mine, as you wake in my arms-
I've never been more afraid.
stained sheets and spilled wine, I don't feel warm-
in whispers your love forbade.

i see you staring at me like you can't find a morrow,
passing another night in lies and cold.
you took everything but me and now I'm hollow,
how i see you slowly growing old.

it has been a while since I've heard you cry,
i hope the tears won't burn you within.
i know how your love seeps near and pries
i don't believe what you've turned me in.

hearing you breathe, as another moment grieves in silence-
in words that'll never drown the ocean.
If I could leave, i know my heart would still crave the violence-
in a world that crowns the broken.
