lyrics

Feels like a hundred years
The glass is long gone broken
False hopes and absurd pretense
My deep ugly wounds are left open

Your lies, the absence of gratitude
and my lack of self-control
Trying to deal with my loss and these changes
What's meant to be, let it happen to me

How could you say
I didn't try at all?
I don't understand
I don't wish to
I looked in your eyes
I see nothing at all
You slipped away
I've lost you

I'm lost, stuck in my own head
How the hell did I get so far away this time?
I was patronised, and to you,
I was something you could cast aside

And I know, since we parted ways,
you've found a way out, you've seen the light
I'm still trying to escape this hell
I'm not doing well on my side

How could you say
I didn't try at all?
I don't understand
I don't wish to
I looked in your eyes
I see nothing at all
You slipped away
I've lost you

I can taste the imminence of my demise
the warmth I used to feel beside me,
it's not there anymore
I am trapped in this never-ending cycle of self-rejection
I will never forget this knife you placed in my back

I never saw it coming, it came without warning
Horrid thoughts consume all of me

Still in disbelief
that you abandoned me
You could've saved me
You could've saved me from myself
I never saw it coming
It came without warning
Please bring an end to this suffering

How could you say
I didn't try at all?
I don't understand
I don't wish to
I looked in your eyes
I see nothing at all
You slipped away
I've lost you

How could you say
I didn't try at all?
I don't understand
I don't wish to
I looked in your eyes
I see nothing at all
You slipped away
I've lost you

This is my desperate shout, I can't hold on
