Piano covered in dust
keys out of tune
room filled with doom
dark shadows on the black and white
checkered tile
I'll just sit here a while
Wipe my foggy eyes
this masquraded demise
hidden in the best desgiuse
as love
that i thought came from you
as you brushed your fingertips
down my back
but true feelings you lacked
push you away with tears
in the green pools
hurt
betrayed
never again
the room begins to spin
ice in my lungs
my heart breaks in two
and i turn to leave
but i see her shadow
her pictures on the wall
i begin to fall
this heart ache grips me as i crawl
this pain i feel
it sends me reeling
a mask i glue in place
concealing
my hurt and tears
all the love id spent for so many years
and now i am poor
my love is no more
i spent everything i had
and i feel so bad
i cant truly feel so ...
no words to put on my emotion
my heart caused a commotion
im sad that i feel this way
only pulls me further down i must say
when did it get this bad
when did i feel this mad
how could i feel any better
just take my scarlet letter
i rather leave this realm
than feel like this
i shouldnt feel like this
...... but you i'll miss
