Tell me again, my darling
when did our lives become so messed up?
I cannot breathe, I cannot sleep
I am nothing
without you here beside me

Tell me again, my darling
why did you decide to get up and leave?
I understand our future was weary
but we were still so young
we had our whole lives ahead of us

Tell me again, my darling
why wasn't I good enough for you?
I told you all my darkest secrets
my thoughts, my fears
the monsters in my mind

Tell me again, my darling
did my sickness make you run and hide?
You saw the scars, you felt my pain
my self-hatred; it took over my life
it even made me start to hate you

Tell me again, my darling
will everything turn out in the end?
'Cause I don't know how much longer I can wait
for these wounds to heal...
I need an escape

From this purgatory.
