My heart is mostly scar tissue, you deserve a new shiny one.

Just two words is all we'll allow.

Goodnight, goodbye.

These tears are on the prowl.

We shook the bed, your hands gripped my waist.

I tried to fight the feeling while I was dying for a taste.

My head was pounding bricks as I realized our smokey sin.

 

But..

I love you.

Dont leave me.

Never let me leave.

I need you.

I breathe you.

Im begging on my knees.

 

I know, I'm the one running.

God, we are so sick.

We're running from the feeling but the space it never sticks.

 

Our passion was never deeper, breathing through the covers.

Your face never more perfect, as my fingers slowly trace

Every inch of all I've known, what is now not called my own.

I loved you the most when we said goodbye.

 

Memories flash before me.

How you whispered "I'm always here"

Never till then did i believe, a love like this exist.

But still I'll run, cause nothing ever feels the same.

Nothing was more painful, then a tattoo on my heart. Simply just your name.

You ripped down walls and heard my calls and silently i slept.

As my heart you did protect.

My tongue is weary from all my lies. I did not know.

My eyes they cry.

Im fighting death as it's knocking on my door.

Come out & play, you filthy *****

No. Not again. Dont leave me all alone.

The demons wisp in and take me for a spin.

Infiltrate my mind.

I dont see them, i won't give in

I promise i could have loved you right before the storm.

I sold my soul to the devil.. That was my selfish sin.
