You fell too far too fast
Fell away from everyone
The hate in your eyes is real
The battered pulse is screaming
I'm tired of hearing it'll be okay
The edge is too close now
Please free me from the whispers
The whispers of judgement and hate
Like acid on my skin
I can hear the end
The end of all that was started long ago
The dream is fading
I admit now, I'm scared for you
But I don't matter anymore
Just the blade on your wrist
The gun to your head
The heart that fell dead long ago
You're flying away
Nothing truly ends?
We'll see about that
I'm sure it seems so easy now
But trust me
There is no peace in that
No lucid thoughts
No words for what I'm feeling
You're condemning yourself to the emptiness you fear
Everyone wants to shut me up
Everyone thinks I'm full of it
Don't listen to the outcast, the liar, the one who hurt you
Their words ring in my ears
You hear it better than I
It is all you know anymore
We'll see
We'll see how this ends
If your choices were right or wrong
Yes, I'll quiet my soul for now
I have no choice in the matter
The blame is not mine, but theirs
I was pushed away long ago
Let's see if their hearts are pure
Let's see if their words are true
Let's see them save you now
Like they promised...
