You weren’t a friend
Until you grabbed me by my hand
My slow defeat
Finish off, whatever’s left to feed
Smother it
Folded
Your blanket made in tungsten
Smother it
Rotten
A fruit for your garden
You were a friend,
Until you told me that this was the end
My slowest wish
Finish off, whatever’s left to speak
(I'll see you when my head stops spinning)
And you won’t fill it through
Those nights, will never come again
Coming to terms, that this will end
Tearing down what’s left of you
I made sure to leave the key
Hung up, beside your shoes

For once
Let me take control of my life
And let me decide
On who I'm meant to be
Listen to what I have to say
This is the day
You might learn some
Common fucking sense
Have some faith In myself
Let me live in my skin
Tell me who you are
And what you mean to me
Take my words
And Listen quietly
Put you in my place
Tear down your walls
Say it to my face
Tell me who I am
And what I mean to you
Keep it to yourself
And make sure nobody knows

And if there’s something I want you to know
Always torn by the fear of my own
Tell me what you want
What I have to do
To make me whole again
Something bothers me about your face
Maybe that’s why I’m scared
I'm running free
Think of the the last thing
That you see
Why doesn't it feel like it should?
Your words are no longer bond
I sit and wait, for the moment I’ll believe
And the moment you will say
“I truly want to stay"
Waiting on the small things
Still searching day by day
I'm still fixing
The broken pieces

And in the absence of mind
There's a clearing in the middle
Where I see the nails unfold
I no longer seek to reason
The sun has never been so bright
I realise
The only thing left in my mind
A blank space draining
All the sorrows in my life
Dreaming I'm seeing me
My enemy
This state is not my mind
Help me find
A new way of life
You had it all
Begin too fall
You thought I saw
Never again
