lyrics

Where'd she go?
I don't know!
Through the door!
Follow her!

Don't wander off!

There she goes!
No remorse!
Don't look back!
Runaway!

You're always say you're not worth saving but your words are fading out

Her pretty eyes are full of lies
(Feeling tired and restless)
But the pain and tears here are televised
(Blue across your face)
Comfort nonexistent, safety inconsistent
(Turns into violet)
Pleasure is the last thing on her mind
(Such violence)

There she goes!
No remorse!
Dont look back!
Run away!

Fuck your faith in him ever getting better
She deserves better so go
(Yet you say that this is love
Yet it’s so damn far from us)
Everything's burning
Everything's falling apart

Where'd she go?
I don't know!
Through the door!
Follow her!

I don’t know what you want from me
You’re Always twisting tearing
pulling at my seams
His over reaction has you trembling at the knees
Whispering to save you
But I’m nowhere in the room
You’re only options spells lose
Painting your face with all this black and blue

You have battle scars and it shows
(all because of you!)
I can sense your fear from the tears on your clothes
(all because of you!)
Blanket your anxiety and move on
(all because of you!)
Find solace in my arms and I’ll be your home
(all because of you!)

Wish someone would save me
(Running home just to find her dead!)
So that should come and see
(Running home just to find me dead!)
What the fuck is happening!?
(Running home just to find us dead!)
I hear you screaming
I wonder what that’s all about?

The ground you stand on will fall through the cracks
Now I'm falling too
Hold you close as we fall to the abyss together
I'm falling for you

Stop what you’re saying
This game that you’re playing
You’re talking in circles now
I know what you’re doing
It’s us that you’re ruining
I guess I should straighten this out

Hey lovely, love me
'Cause I know that you're hurting and I got the medicine to cleanse you of your sin, that's him
He ain't shit
He's a bitch
So get the fuck over it

Stop what you’re doing
Don’t fight it you’re choosing
To ignore all we have
I’m sorry if it hurts you
Miss, you really have to learn this
And I know
You know
That I love you

Shieeet

Your phone begins to ring
I wonder who’s been calling
Your eyes they tell the truth
Your mouth continues lying

Over and
Over again

And in the bed you lay
Reaping what you’ve been sowing
You reek of kerosene
Such fragile things are burning

Up in flames
Just like me

Find yourself before you move forward
Tread this water cautiously
Pray for tomorrow and live for today
Carve your path as your past fades away
Warm your heart and save your soul
Purity tainted by a world so cold
Everything's dark
Down this lonely road
I'm reaching out my hand
To never let go
Please don't let go
I won't let go

This is a truth that I cannot refuse
(Breathe hope inside of your lungs)
Can’t seem separate what’s been glued
(There will be better days)
I can’t imagine what you’ve been through
(Wake up, the past is dead)
Your name reads dead on the news
(We'll get you to a better place)

Why cant I see what's in front of my face!?
