I have done terrible things
Things to make you shiver in the dark
Things that make even my own skin crawl
I want them back, to take them away
I hurt others, so badly I cry
It wasn’t me! I scream
It was them! I can’t help it!
Please, you have to believe me
The things that lie in wait
To rip me apart
To make me rend and tear
As they watch
It’s the demons that lurk beneath the skin
The ones only freed by razors
Death is to begin again
Right?
They beg me to stay
I beg them to let me leave
I don’t want to hurt you anymore
I don’t want to make you bleed
No you must stay
You must endure
You must continue the hurt
No matter what
Do you like it?
Is that it? Do you like it you sick bastards?
To see me hurt
Or is it you that you like to see hurt?
I trusted you
You stabbed me in the back
I loved you
You loved me
Is this what it’s all come to?
Lovely red swirls
Going round and round
I can’t forgive you
You can’t forgive you
You can’t forgive me
I can’t forgive me either
Sometimes I wonder if it was all worth it
Then I think of the times we shared
All of the kinds words
All of the times you saved me
I met you in a dark place
I met you with scars
Scars on our skin
Now where are we?
Right back where we began?
Or is it worse?
Can this ever get better?
I have to believe it will
She still loves me
She needs me
The last bird in an almost empty nest
Why’d you make me choose?
We were happy!
Why’d you have to choose?
I thought we were happy!
How could it end this way?
I’m broken
You’re shattered
Nobody said it’d end like this
