It's not fair what's been said done
And at the same time who will I become
I'm vacant and patience is wearing thin
From weight bearing down my chest
I don't care what you see it's killing me
I thought that we were blood
I see how selfish I've become
My insides bend until they break
Lying to myself is all i can take
Everyday I spend in disbelief
Wondering how i can change
I need to distance myself from this so i can think
Broken bottles on the floor calling out your name
Shattered spirits like the roaring shore I’ll never be the same
Oh my precious I’ve been waiting too long
For the chance to tell you but now it’s too late
For the setting sun to make us one
and to give us this life that we held onto
This deafening light you're safe and then die
You waste your patience on this senseless night
I found my heart maimed and filled with shame
And if we’re the same then i’m to blame
Wake up you can’t fix what’s been done
It takes time but it’s only just begun
A shadow in my periphery
Somewhere there’s a better me
I'm lost
No more promises for me to break
No more promises for us to make
No more promises for me to fake
All your promises time will take
This hell you left is a shell of who i was
So leave it to me and I'll never forget
