Lately I can see nothing in your eyes
Except for maybe the coming of a goodbye
I know not of your kind
And I'm longing to unveil your evil mind
You're like pouring salt into and open wound
Please tell me this hurt will be over soon
I'll sacrifice myself and give you what's left
It's become to me plain as day
Soon I'm gonna need a change in the worst way
Not getting to you is killing me
And eventually I will suffocate from lack ofΒ Β breathing
All the lies need to stop
Because I'm running out of the stone is takes to be your rock
So watch the words you say
Because it's the ones you don't
That I take the wrong way.
Just getting through to you takes all my strength
And soon enough I will suffocate.
I'm dying inside
So is this is your idea of torture?
I'm asking you with my heart still barely beating
Why are you killing all the good left within me?
I could take every word you ever said
Throw it in your face and be done
Because I've gathered so many, and kept them so close
But all I want is to make this love real.
I can still remember how you looked at me
A scowl upon your face trying to be sincere
But you smothered me when you just lied and acted fake
I'm so far away from you now
We'll never be able to bring back yesterday
And I keep trying to forget you
But it leaves me less than zero,
Beat down and bruised
I try to take a breath but then I start choking
I try to remember to just forget you,
But all I ever achieve is pure agony
I have this empty hole now where a heart should be
And no words left to serenade me
I just keep slipping farther as I'm left to bleed out
I have no voice left to protest all that remains is doubt
There are no reasons left for me to be
Because your deceit just took the breath right out of me.
