Carnival of Curses

My eyes water, as I see your face

staring back at me, blank and heartless.
Every night, the same n i g h t m a r e r...r...eplays

& I'm helpless to it's excessiveness [wishing.for.a.better.way]

Do you remember when you loved me -

it was bittersweet, just the right mix,

I loved you more than a n y t h i n g.

Held you c.l.o.s.e and kissed your lips,

singing 'he is mine and I am his' -

but it's just a T | R | A | G | I | C  **Lie**

baby, baby I'm trying my best to hate you,

but it just brings me to s

                                          u

                                      i

                                          c

                                      i

                                          d

                                      e.

When you turned away and said

"I don't want to be with you anymore, babe."

I was c / u / t, qu|art|er|ed and left for dead--

you knew how much I adored you honey,

but you still said the things you said.

& every once in a while you come back for more

& I'm left as broken as the r.r.r.r.ecord from before.

I have someone sincere & yet sometimes, you cross my mind

more than the rarest times - I don't know how I still feed in your L*I*E*S

I should hate you after all you've done -

some sick, perverted creature from rocky horror picture show.

Wish I could |hide| behind some fake emotions, but I've lied enough

about all the little love.you.not.love.you.sos, I can't do this anymore.


I'm going to have to let you completely go.
