Circumstantial Evidence

Once, just once
time stood still
I never thought I’d feel so ill
Sick of the skin
Tired of the world
I never thought I’d hate that girl.

Beats break silence
You words were better left unsaid
Never thought I’d hear your defiance
I’m starting to envy the deaf.

Out on my own,
These people only want what’s mine
No intentions of reconciliation
You’ve really blown it all this time.
Effort doesn’t count for much
Don’t try, just do.
I never thought I’d hate your touch
What have I got left to prove?

I gave truth to fit description
I gave everything I had
The worlds so close to over
I still can’t face coming back
If this is the last day on earth
I’d do it all over without you.

Forgetting to show
Any signs of mercy on my mind
There’s no stars in my sky
You’re all dead in my eyes.
It’s time I left it all behind.
