Gave me lies and excuses
Willingly welcomed them all
Because it was not worth it for me to lose you
We lost anyways, witnessed feelings fall.

Torn apart from the inside out
Ugly on surface and within
Can't erase scars you left on my heart
Like track marks on skin

Dream of a parallel universe
Think of a world where we could be
In eachothers arms forever
Every day live happily

Hunted, haunted by this unreachable dream
Shadow the only company, mocking clone
Need more than silent mimicking companion
Not your flimsy mask, rather be alone

Take me someplace we can be ourselves
An eye in tornado calledΒ life
Longing to feel free but trapped between
Peace and sudden change sharp knife

Caged by indecision
Mind racing around bedroom walls
I can't help but wonder
Did you ever care or love me at all?
I'll never know what i really meant to you
