You don't know how much
How much I care for you
And even if you said you hated me
I will always love you
Sometimes, all it takes to deliver a message is one stanza ;)
holding onto you
is like holding your breath
sooner or later
you won't be able to breathe
you will just be gasping for air
or you will suffocate yourself
but letting go of you
seems impossible
I don't know if I can
I don't even know if I want to
I am still in love with you
I just wish you were
still in love with me
then maybe
I could breathe again
and I wouldn't have to just
hold onto you
I would have you

our love
is like a song
something I fell asleep to
every night
the song never seemed to
come to an end
I could just listen
to the beautiful sound of
the instruments playing
every night
it was like the sound of your voice
telling me you loved me
something I always looked
forward to
it was calming and peaceful
when go to sleep
and I listen to that melody
every now and again
I hear something a little different
but I didn't think anything of it
maybe it was to make the song better
as time went on
it kept changing
but now it's completely different
it's louder and not soothing
the instruments are out of tune
to the point they sounded like screams
our screams
I remember
during one night
I was listening to that song
the instruments sounded louder
than it has ever been
and in the middle
it got silent
no longer was our song playing
all I heard was dead silence
never again
did I hear our song playing
it had officially ended

as the acid runs down my face
out of my eyes
I feel it all across my cheeks
leaving burn marks
where it touched my skin
most people
would hate the feeling of this
but for me
it's normal
I'm used to it
I like it
no..
I love it
I love the feeling
as the acid burns my cheeks
it makes me forget
how much I miss you
it takes that pain away just for a bit
but yet I still think about you
I think about us
our love
our hopes
our dreams
I never thought
I would see you go
or ever have to miss you
but I do
every drop of that acid
represents you
and all your memories
and tonight
that acid pours out

I was never good at saying goodbye
and I never thought
I'd have to say that to you
but I guess all good things
come to an end
especially when you least expect
good things
we were more than
a good thing
you were the best thing
that has ever happened to me
and that was the worst thing
that could've happened
why is it even called a goodbye
nothing was good about that
I lost you
you were the most important
thing to me
you were my everything
my whole world
and I thought I was yours
but I guess I was wrong
all the things you said
you never meant
we were destined for goodbye
from the beginning
