Hardly seems real Staring straight, eyes dilated slightly Finding that the back of my throat Is constricting Unhindered The light is shining through Its burning up this trash That clouds my better judgement And I'm left choking on fumes Just one word too far it seems I just watched you dash my deepest dreams With a callous disregard reserved For the ignorant Now I stand before you here Stupefied Everything I once held dear You've broken in my hands Left speechless Motionless You know I tried to mend every loose end But there's no coming back from this Left empty You trashed my only plan The words we held onto Are falling from my grip as the cracks begin to show The reflection Of the truth i used to know You're every little seam that deep inside of me Kept the rest from showing We unravel Even as you start to scream, traitor to the cause, I guess that's how you see me Then that's what I have to become And you don't notice What we've both become Nothing we loved changed at all It's us with wandering hearts And now we've strayed too far I won't go on
