Losing my sanity was never too clean
But since you left me unaware...
(I've been living this nightmare)
Once we had it all
(Too much for too few)
Then we couldn't fall
(The touch of ecstasy that we all knew)
With each glance I made you mine
And you just wanted to pass the time
Hate is a feeling in too calm a tone
To express the pain of being all alone
You can move on and through the loss
(Too good, all for you)
But I will whither on the cross
(Too good, just for you)
The tears I'll cry will never repay
The night that you were taken away
I'll just feel lost and broken
While you move along to another token
I'll take the scraps as they fall
(The dinner table is more than full)
And with fevered teeth answer every call
(The lost ones screaming with every pull)
My frothy eyes can barely see
All of the craven waste you left me
