Im going to close my eyes

and never open them again

Its plain to see, my heart gave way

but its because of you that I break not bend

and the last words that trickle out my mouth will ring in silence



Cmon you know I always heard you out

and you brought about more pain than I could handle



A fatal love and forgotten pulse

growing fainter with every minute

What I need is one second of your time

to loosen this rope long enough letting three words slip by

Im remembering every car ride and sunset we absorbed

despite youve got me dangled, tangled, and undeniably ignored



Cmon you know I always heard you out

and you brought about more pain than I could handle



"forgiven, forgotten"

drowned so often

in the water under the bridge,

the water under the bridge.



Cmon you know I always heard you out

and you brought about more pain than I could handle



Ive been waiting for the longest time

untie this noose and Ill be fine

Im short of breathe and hanging from my neck all for you

My flesh is searing from this knot youve tied

regret, and blood, and pride collide

swelling at my head and hands

swollen I find myself still waiting
