Trusted you with my soul
You burned all my bridges
Gave you the key,
You wrecked every train of thought

Always had your voice raised
Bleeding ears that suffered insults

Let you in,
You flooded the ventricles, stopped the pulse
Surrendered to you,
You left your mark with crimson ribbons

Never gave a gentle touch,
The bruises you loved so much faded, not the scars

Began to fight for myself
You knocked down my ground
Tried getting back up
You broke my legs

Fear soon began to set in
The hunger for pain made you into a monster

Raised a hand to block the abuse
You snapped my strength with the cold blade
Finally screamed out into the dark for help
You shoved me off the cliff, into eternal sleep

Did nothing but see my love,
You now only see my broken body
