This affliction courses through my veins sleep commands no solace
I've been abandoned
directionless inside my fucking head
My being once blessed with purpose
now cursed despite my honest virtues
How could I bring myself to forget
that look upon your face?
A picture of pure disgust
my soul awaits for one last embrace
If I knew how much was yet to change
I'd keep you safe with me
You were the only guidance
I ever needed
the only voice inside my head
I ever let give me a reason
(and after everything)
And after everything was said
and after everything was done
I cannot bear to see how I destroyed
the only thing I loved
Making the same mistakes again
(making the same mistakes again)
I can only live this life alone
devoid of any purpose
yet only having scratched
the fucking surface
(of what could have been)
of what could have been
but never grated the chance to blossom
Excruciating, contemplating
how to turn back the clock
(From the bottom of my heart)
(the most honest I could ever be)
(if I could change only one thing)
(it would be that you were here with me)
If I held my breath
would you breathe your life though me
Would you whisper in my ear
the way things are meant to be?
I told myself
I'd never let you down again
(down again)
But despite my best attempts
I've proven my worthlessness
What truly resides
inside my chest?
Is it a heart
or just fucking emptiness?
