Shadows deepen
Nothing left to breathe
But that which poisons your heart
No escaping
This shallow world unseen
They'll always drag you back down
Crying out
No one hears
Forever locked in your fear
Chasing doubt
All you see
Is everything you told me
I once loved you
It's like you never knew
The only thing I ever wanted was to trust you
Now I see through
Verything that you do
No more lies because it's over and I'm leaving this life
And you behind
Storm subsiding
And you still cannot hear
I'm calling out in the dark
I stopped trying
Too long ago you failed
To even act like you cared
Now you know
What I meant
When I said "I'll see you in hell"
Becuase now
That you're there
You know I just watched as you fell
I once loved you
It's like you never knew
The only thing I ever wanted was to trust you
Now I see through
Everything that you do
No more lies because it's over and I'm leaving this life
And you behind
~you never heard me when i cried~
~though i was there till you died~
~now as i stand over your grave~
~it shows just how much i gave~
(yeah right I had to fight you
if only just to live
yeah keep on dreaming, thinking you won
after all of this I'm still here)
I once loved you
It's like you never knew
The only thing I ever wanted was to trust you
Now I see through
Everything that you do
No more lies because it's over and I'm leaving this life
And you behind
