Take me far away
Let me forget what I love to remember;
Take me to a path lead astray
Let me feel the churning of dread and terror;
Smash this gigantic heart to pieces
Let the love I give be crumbled;
Sew again those wretched faces
Let yourself again be trampled;

I can't breathe

I can't breathe

Suffocate me with your gentle hands;

I can't sleep

I can't sleep

Label my nightmare with unusual brands;

I'm sick and tired of carrying this heart
Too soft to ever not fall in love;
I take things so hard that I fall apart
Clip the wings off the pristine dove;
Hiding my thoughts in letters and words
Hiding my thoughts in lines and verses,
Hiding my love though more than words
Hiding my love through curses.

I can't feel

I can't feel

Wound myself to see if it better be;

I can't flee

I can't flee

**To see if it better be a cruel reality.
I want somebody to talk to but my head says otherwise
