Addicted

You brought to the table a bowl of empty lies
Hungry for wrongdoing, I could see it in your eyes
Transfixed on silver platters and stolen cherry wine
You were addicted to the taste of what was yours and never mine

Drowning in your grasp and unable to breathe the air
I'm suffocating silently in the presence of your stare
Your indulgence lingers on my mind, your lips pressed to my skull
I tried to escape your filthy touch, but the old blade was too dull

I hope you know now
I'm not a prize for you to claim
Or a possession for you to keep
It was you - you're the one to blame
For the wounds that cut too deep
It's too late now to reconcile
And bring a light back to the dark
I see it in your crooked smile
That you thrive on breaking hearts

Dancing with the wolves and hearing their howling to the moon
Reminds me of  the longing I had to free myself from you
Fangs as sharp as switchblades and claws digging in my side
Ripped my heart out of my chest and stole from me my pride

Evil intoxications brought a mind and soul to their knees
Your false promises and forbidden love bring storms to the seven seas
The harrowing progression - a killer of hopes and dreams
The end echoes in stale silence - enough to drown internal screams

I hope you know now
I'm not a prize for you to claim
Or a possession for you to keep
It was you - you're the one to blame
For the wounds that cut too deep
It's too late now to reconcile
And bring a light to the dark
I see it in your crooked smile
That you thrive on breaking hearts

As I lay here, dirty, huddled on the floor
My mind's already made it's journey out the open door
I can't move any muscles or even bend a single bone
I swear until this this day I have never felt more alone

No one knows the pain I have from keeping this inside
The memories and feelings are slowly eating me alive

I hope you know now
I'm not a prize for you to claim
I hope you know now
You're the only one to blame
I hope you know now
I'm still struggling for air
I hope you know now
When I close my eyes,
All I see is your evil, longing stare
I hope you know
That all I want is to be free
And I hope you know
That because of you,
I can never again be me.
