take me back from now
if only there were a way how
i could escape this pain i call a life
a way to escape this pain and strife
where my only release is a sharped knife
take me back to when
your voice saying my name caused words to collide
your hand in mine never broke my stride
now all i'm left with is this dented pride
and my lips
don't know how to smile
and all the while
you sit by her side
drinking in my soul
as i sink deeper into this hole
our 'love' has made

if only there were a way how
i could escape this pain i call a life
a way to escape this pain and strife
where my only release is a sharped knife
take me back to when
your voice saying my name caused words to collide
your hand in mine never broke my stride
now all i'm left with is this dented pride
and my lips
don't know how to smile
and all the while
you sit by her side
drinking in my soul
as i sink deeper into this hole
our 'love' has made
