never see that this is me -------------------------------------------
they can look into those eyes
and never see
the pain you caused when you left me
the way i laid shattered on the floor
as you watched me through the broken door.
they can hear the sounds
and never know
the way i screamed
was like nails on the chalk board
or the broken sobs made you kill me more.
you screamed breakdown
get back up and fight
you screamed get out
but come back when its light.
the words and the noises
were so confusing
that i burned all my bridges
and forgot all i knew.
only heaven knew
that we didnt have that far to fall
and the devil wished for only rain.
how do we save ourselves
when we both hide inside these shells?
so heres to you and heres to me
hopefully the pain will win
hopefully we'll die together in the fire
make it last one more night
make the pleasure take us higher.
they can all look into those black holes you call eyes
and never see
that this is me.
