i wandered amongst lifeless souls
where were my thoughts i called my home
where i left love i called the past
and what i found, forget i must.
i ve battled fears and unknown dreams
seems like i havent slept in weeks
you were the best thing in my life
until you said i aint the right.
person for you and i should leave
wipe clean the feelings that i breed
i want to go, i want to stay
where i am found i would remain
no more sweet words and cruel jokes
you wont cut deeper than my thoughts
as soon as you have left my head
i ll start to plan what lies ahead.
as soon as you have left my heart
stopped being my life's the biggest part
you have become my own mistake
my one regret, a promise i won't ever break.
sometimes i reckon its my turn
to suffer like the rest of us
then i see my self turn to dust
along with bridges that i ve burnt
the happier you get the worse
my love's become my only curse
my friend's become the death of me
how could i foolishly believe
that someone would be true to us
someone would clean my dark grey skies.
i was so wrong, that 's why it burns
i wish for one day we switched turns.
i would be happy i am free
and you would die inside and bleed.
your eyes would fill with smoke and ash
your ears would ring, and system crash.
you wouldnt stand straight
wouldnt care,
before you go to sleep, so scared
you would be crying all night long
your tears turn red
your limbs go cold.
then you would go back to yourself
all happy free in love with else.
and i dont care, and i dont mind
you re something i will leave behind.
