lyrics

Grasping for solace, but I'm choking on my words
Eighteen years of adversity has torn us apart
I’ve tried, I’ve failed, I have disintegrated
And your words would always keep me unharmed

All I ever had to offer was a heart to mend
Without a single glimpse of light
Please salvage me from this never ending grief
Rip out the pages and watch them turn to dust

I’d stay in out in the coldest nights just to see you smile
My lips were cracked from the freezing winter winds
The sky came crashing down upon me when I heard you say
That it was over, that we were done, and I heard you whisper;
Goodbye

All I ever had to offer was a heart to mend
Without a single glimpse of light
Please salvage me from this never ending grief
Rip out the pages and watch them turn to dust

I never pictured the day that the rain fell
Along with the tears from my eyes
To be the day I realized
I had died

The winters last too long, so we wasted time
Chasing shadows on our own
But I would never have kissed your lips
If I'd known you’d be my end

This constant fear of failing swallowed me whole
I have given up, I’m stuck in this pain I’ve come to know
And when I fall asleep tonight
I’ll pray that I’ll never wake up again
