lets turn this around and look it in the eye
the only time i would ever try to make myself
happy.
I'd colour you with jealousy
but sickening disgust could be a better description
of the look upon your face
could i really ever hurt you?
the changes in my moods can tell
that your not going to take this well
and I'm only that far away
of a new day.
and do i really want to give away
the life I've always wanted
for the life i just can't take
always missing one more beat
always taking one less step
towards the colours of eternity
the only life that's made for me.
happiness provokes me
but comes with a cost
for times i find it pleasing
for a calming loss
but when my mind unbuttons
and all of me is shown
I'll crawl back in my corner
cause he will never know
just how far my insanity goes.
and do i really want to give away
the life Ive always wanted
for the life i just cant take
always missing one more beat
always taking one less step
toward the colours of eternity
the only life that's made for me.
sometimes death comes
unexpected
and before you even know it
your whole life is thrown away
