Lips full of lies
Seal them shut,I beg of you
Prevaricate me no more
Of vows that are to be broken
I was the only one holding on
As you were slowly drifting away
Saying you never meant to hurt me
That you are only human
Make me lost in oblivion
End this life long turmoil
Emancipate this poorl soul
Bound to the shackles of her past
You made me feel worthless
These scars will never heal
Nothing can make it right again
This perpetual pain shant vanquish
Now as I sit here
My heart slowly turns cold
Barring myself from the warmth
Numbing myself with defunct emotions
Author notes
You said you never wanted to see me hurt, so tell me... do you close your eyes whenever you're with me?

i like the end stanza:
Now as I sit here
My heart slowly turns cold
Barring myself from the warmth
Numbing myself with defunct emotions
