Tears racing down my cheeks
I'm trying to find the words but I can't speak
My hands tightly clutching your shirt
Your eyes full of confidence and mirth
Here's another girl running after you
Foolish enough to believe that your promises were true
You smirked and pried me away
Saying, I'm too boring to make you stay
With that, you turned your back
An offhand comment wishing me luck
My knees buckled as I accept defeat
This is karma, so swift and sweet.
One eye blind, one bright and clear
Both swimming with doubts, both filled with fear
One hand with gun, one gripping yours
Both bloody and bruised, both aching with force
Your lips on my ears, whispering the same words again and again
Telling me you're sorry, to pick up the pen
But the one's not holding mine, clutches a sword
And blood flows through my mouth instead of words.
We dream, we love, we cry
We live, we strive, we die
No matter what, it's the same fucking cycle
Long bloody wars, the never-ending battles
And I want out, I want to run away
From the life I'm doomed, from the words they have to say
So go on, pull that trigger
Maybe in death, there is something better.
I watch as you chase after someone
I watch as you shatter with every run
I watch as your tears fall to the ground
Wishing you'd notice me this time around
I wonder why you always look pass me
I wonder why you can never see
That I'm here and always will be
That I can be your long-lost key
If you will only give me a chance
It'll be me to take you to dance
And I won't take another glance
I'll hold you for lifetime in my arms.
they have broken the person that i am
no matter what i do, i'll never be the same
i have only wanted happiness, something that'll last
something that'll prove i'm more than my past
i know that my soul have flown today
and i'm more alone that i'll admit to say
i even have lost that little smile within me
i'm nothing but a worthless broken machinery
i hope someday they would see
the creature we turned me to be
but i know that it's too late now
for the human inside me have taken its last bow.

As I walk, it feels heavy
I know this won't make me happy
So, though I want to continue the show
I turned my back without letting them know
Maybe I'll put an end to this tonight
And accept that I lost this fight
For I can't go and pretend anymore
I can't continue banging on these doors
The fog is covering my mind
The exit is something I cannot find
So I will simply make my own
When I leave this world at dawn.
The way he talks,
The way he laughs
Is like music to my ears
The way he says my name,
The way he smiles
Take away all my fears
But as I think,
And fall asleep
While wiping away my tears
I know that I’ve fallen
For a man
Who won’t ever hold me near.
