I feel hollowed by every time I let you down, because every stumble feels like one thousand defeats.
These sorry eyes speak every word that your mouth never could.
These skinny legs that shake with doubt tell me what this is all about.
These sorry eyes speak every word that your mouth never could
I want you more than my breath.

My mind won't sleep and neither will I, and all these days that I had wished for knew they had to end. All these things I seem to lack are what make me so bitter and all these things I can't remember are my greatest friend.
Who knew it would have to, it would have to end.
We were such fools to think that this was okay.
You'll try, you will try to keep me safe
Hide from my demons
They are what make me
You know I'm empty
You know I'm empty
I knew that every day from here on out
Would be, would be filled with so much doubt
I'll just second guess my presence here
Hide from my Demons
They are what make me
You know I'm empty
You know I'm empty
Oh, don't go.

All I wanted was to see you again, I almost tripped on my own feet as I went to the door. Pushed your hair back, kissed you on the cheek you told me you love me but I can see you lying to me. I can see you lying to me.
It seems you knew from the start.
Exactly what you'd say.
When you would empty my chest,
and throw what was left on the ground.
I pull back the pieces.
Then I sew them in.
I still see the scarring
That you never will.

Oh I will punish my lips for every world they spoke to you, I hope it never comes out, the truths I never told you, your eyes don't even flutter the way they used to, when I'd tear down a wall and then another. but it doesn't matter.
I know my voice won't be heard
By the night that shadows me
It was never one to speak
So why should I speak now.
Bite the lip and turn away, my dear your back is killing me, all we are is lost at sea all we are is drowning me.
All we are.

I've thought of every way to keep it on the outside, but still I bring it back to all of my rage, that festers with every coming of days. I've always turned my fear to something I hate.
And I'm scared of what I don't know
And my fear turns to all that I hate.
So I will tear his arms off.

I pull everything too close in order to keep this working, I always jump on ahead, so that I keep lurking,
In the dark all by myself, doesn't that contradict itself?
Why do I panic when you're not around? These mounds of paper give me something I've found, I'm looking for something, something not lost, but something repressed in this terrible mess.
