I've taught my body to love the flames that engulf me day after wretched day
At least I can love something right?
Because lately I've been feeling a whole lot of nothing
And trust me when I say that it doesn't feel good
But you can't trust me
You can't trust anyone
Maybe I would find that hurtful
But there is nothing left for you to hurt
You've taken everything that I am
No matter how hard I tried to hold onto the rope that connected me to me
The burns on my hands from trying to put out the flames that hold me
Begin to burn more
Until I see bone
I see the fragile foundations that reside within me
If I can even call myself me anymore
Truth is I am just a hollowed out shadow of a person that used to love you
And that's fine
For now it's fine as someone else
Pulls the puppet strings
And makes me dance the dance
That's life I guess
I don't want to dance anymore
The strings rub against my wrists
I'm scared they will pull so hard
And my hands will fall off
I can't dance anymore
I can't anymore
