just another piece of me
You're just another piece of me I need to drown
Holding me up and pulling me down.
I can't look at you, it tears at me inside
And I whisper your name, as I smile and hide
Everyone can see this mask I hold in place,
I've kept it for so long, it resembles my face.
I would rather fall then cry out for a helping hand,
Even when I try, it's not as if you understand.
Let me go, but hold me tight.
This push and pull just feels so right
A bittersweet smile, a simple sad touch.
I'd rather be alone than need you this much.
burned as the sun sets
the last ashes of my dreams vanish
steel enclosing the last of my humanity
the key lost forever in an abyss of self loathing
i cling to the ashes that remain
remembering on the day he could have been
what it felt like to love
