I ripped open my ribs to let someone in
I felt used knowing where I had just been
I got so tired of having useless limbs
I wasn't perfect -
Some things were still upsetting me
You're no cure but a remedy
I'd put myself through endless pain
Just to feel your love fill my veins -
One last time
Were you ever really mine?
I dissected every little flaw
Everything visible deemed slightly wrong
I am cold and I am weak
I killed the last thing that made me complete
I was handed heaven and hell is what I brought
So dear god please let me rot

What'd you say again?
Are you late again?
I'm in pain again
I think I will be stayin in
The song you sent, I'm still playin it
What you saying then?
Where you fuckin staying then?
I evaporate, I can't fill your plate
You look so lovely covered in ashes
Remember when you told me I was a box full of matches
Now you're on fire and I'll sit and watch it happen
We were born to disintegrate let's try not to reiterate
It can happen once, it can happen twice
Just talk me up, tell me I'm lookin nice
Reverse the process of growth // Make my life slow
Pull me from my roots it'll happen soon
Feed me promises, I wanna hear something new
Leave me vacant, while you walk away richer
I'll rest in peace knowing I was in your picture
Carve within my chest, my heart is yours to rest

Breathing in your absence has become a task
Every gasp I took I’d wish for my last
I never found you at the bottom of a flask
If you wanted one last thing you could’ve just asked
Constant wish that it was like November
Because that was the last month where you couldn’t be remembered
I went n’ moved the photo from the shelf to the dresser
Keeping it tucked away made things a little better
Taking you in felt like living in filth
You brought plague into this home we once built
You grinned looking down at all the blood that I’ve spilled
- And you laughed looking down at all the love that you've killed
Living in your light for years its always been so dim
The time passes by and you haven’t let me in
The promises you’ve made had always run so thin
Gone for months at a time, wondering where have you been
So yeah I may be bitter but at least I’m not a bitch
I hope the day you get that license you end up in a ditch
Gouge out my eyes for something a new
maybe a set that have never looked at you
Sever my hands for a pair that you’ve never touch
Baby when I’m chopped I’ll finally be enough
Don’t hit my line because theres nothing to discuss
Every other emotion was drowned out by disgust
This is not something you can mask with your lust
You and I can’t coexist so that means there no us
You can drive past Chateau and no one will be home
Sleep in my old room see what that bed is like alone
Feel what it’s like to have to call my phone
It's cliche but maybe I’m better on my own

See you in a cemetery mid day in January
Some mornings you'll still be there it always varies
I remember when you caught me downstairs
My numb lips cold feel your stare
Not a word from me because you were well aware
You know what happened just moments before
No room for judgement that's something you can't afford
Sometimes I wonder if I really let you down
But you've done the same and more so I still play the clown
You called my phone 24 times
You can tell the truth when they ask "Where was I?"
You can fuck me up 24 times
But when I finally do it I'm the bad guy
I hope this winter you decide to stay inside
I can't bare to see you out all the time
You never catch me staring, you seem just fine
IF YOU LET US DISSOLVE
WOULD IT BRING US PEACE AFTER ALL?
/ / / /
IF YOU ASKED ME HOW I FEEL RIGHT NOW
I COULDN'T SAY THAT YOU MADE ME PROUD
Without you here the time flys by
I used to collapse but now I'm just fine
I neglected to nourish the memories this time
I didn't know that I'd let it die
Don't get it wrong I didn't forget
I think I'm just distracted at best
The transition from obsessed to suppressed
You'd wish my last words were for you with a blade to my neck
You wanna keep tabs so you can always check
You can hope everything's for you
You always think you can see right through
You love to think I carry no more depth
Than your name and how it makes upset
You crawled through my wounds just to manifest
You pride yourself with my own lack of rest
You hate the thought of me at my very best
You want to abuse me but there's nothing left
I think it'd best if you left..

Mid November winds slashing at my cheeks
I been walking in circles I got blisters on my feet
Standing in debris and dirt just to lay around
When our home shattered it didn't make a sound
Completely silent for the two made out of glass
From the fucking start we knew it wouldn't last
The sun comes up and I haven't moved at all
The sun comes up and I'm still staring at my wall
I remember the summer with that piece of shit phone
You were away while I was at home all alone
That's when I came across a sensation to take your place
Every day since I took 400 to the face
Don't act like it kills you when you brought this on yourself
This bottles empty 'cause of me I don't need no fucking help
Don't act like you care if I take care of myself
How does one become absolutely nothing?
How did I lose my desire to ever be something?
The best kind of feeling is one that is numbing
I just called Asmodeus to ask if he's still coming
Learned a lesson on how to disappear
Because staying right here became my greatest fear
Love, life
All of the above is overbearing
Be careful what you wish for 'cause I can't take off this mask that I've been wearing
I got the same look on my face for 24 hour a fucking day
I start to wonder if the shit will ever go away
The burden of breath or being vacant, which one will it be?
Finding balance between the two will be the death of me
I guess I get what I give when I treat it like a game
I cannot offer little and still expect the same
Why is perfection so hard to maintain?

I will let you down
I detach when no ones around
Severed dreams from a hospital bed
It won't take long
Close your eyes and the pain is gone
Aren't you sick of feeling sick?
Haven't you given in?
I don't think I have much left
Forcing notes from a bone dry pen
With nothing to be said
Words make it harder in the end
I am wilted and you're well overspent
