This life is too much
Yet I can't get enough
To me you fucking lied
The truth I will not be denied.
This weight cannot be lifted
Off of my heart
Nor will it shift
With this life I want to part
I think about it all day
So I can die every night
With nightmarish images to keep at bay
I cannot bear this, try as I might
I'm drowning with every breath I take
Burning with every memory
Don't say you're sorry; it's much too late
Look at me, you cannot deny!
Die as I have
Try as you should
You promised you would; You shan't.
These tears I have shed
Have you're name on them
I've wished I was dead
Myself I have condemned.
Carving my pain onto my skin
Don't worry for me
My casket you shall put me in
You will regret this, you'll see.
It won't even feel like I've gone
I'll be burning in Hell, you'll see
Waiting for you, not for long
Your reputation will be paying
Took my chances
I hurt you so
My heart for you dances
Under the knife; Of a hand that is mine own.
The pain I feel is never-ending
So please take a look at the real me
Of the pain I am concealing
Because it is you I need.
Hate me if you will
But take another hit
My screams are shrill
Because you're in another fit.
Crouch in the corner
With no dignity left
This girl, you used to adore her
It is my heart you have kept.
I pity you, you know?
You've been through a lot too
Your pain is starting to show
It's me you fear to lose.
I pull away
Because part of me still hates you
Try as I may
I fear I may lose you too.
I've seen you cry but once
When you and mom split
I feel so shunned
We were so tight knit.
I hate myself
For all I've done
For all the pain I've dealt
Put a bullet through my brain
Would be the solution anyways
Fate has brought us here
To deal with ourselves
Things are not as they appear
Let's put our hearts on the shelves.
It's a never-ending cycle
That makes me sick
Put me in a shell
Another scar on my arm I'll knick.
What happened to the one I used to know?
The one that made me laugh instead of cry
That is the one I once knew
But that man has already died.
Look into my eyes
What do you see?
Do you see the one that cries
The one that used to be me?
These eyes have shed these tears
Hiding them for years
They are of guilt and pain
And thoughts of sweet death
It's myself I disdain,
Can't this pain fade away?
