If I sleep I see
What you’ve been trying to tell me
When you’re gone I see
What you didn’t want me to know

I gave up
And I’ve accepted it
Now I know and I recognize it
I know I was never enough for you

I drew a dream upon you
And promised things I couldn’t do
Not that I didn’t want to
But you didn’t let me through

I’ve stopped seeing you
As the one I would always love
And today I remember you
Like the one I won’t forget

Hey
Why can’t you stop hiding…
…Behind that useless wall?
Why won't you come out?

You were never alone
Beyond the darkness
I can see your eyes

If you're scared of what life is to bring
The cruel words shouldn't be much of a concern
If you can see somewhere after this life
You will realize how nothing is worth fighting for
Don’t be afraid
There is nothing to fear anymore

Tell me
Did I make you see
What you've been hiding from
All these years?

Tell me
If you understand
That nothing really matters
If you're always scared

I want to know
When you see me like this
How do you feel?

Do you wish love hadn’t pulled us apart?
Oh, it wasn’t love was it?
It was you

You see, everything fell apart
The pieces hit me everywhere
I bled for a while until my strength stopped it
I bet you would have enjoyed the view
But I have no regrets today
Listen, these eyes will never see you the same

If you could sleep
I would like to get close to you
See the closest your face will get to look dead

I don’t know why
This anger burns my chest
Every time I see you

You see, you damaged me
The pain was only present inside of me
I saw you everywhere
Wearing that smiled I once loved to kiss
Tell me if you wanted to hurt me
Because if this is what you wanted to do
You did it very well.
