Smoking out those sleepless summer nights,
It used to get me high, now it only gets me dull.
That was just so precious to me,
it was golden, and I looked no further.
I couldn’t hold what you did to me,
it kept bugging me
ever since I left.
We are doomed, both you and I,
this guilt trip did nothing but fence us apart.
And I knew it would be a farewell as I turned away,
though I swallowed my tongue and smiled,
knowing it’s like I just cut off my nose to spite my face.
Her mouth is sore from talking shit
I will stand my ground,
And I’ll keep my head up high,
but If I fall on my knees am I too proud to beg?
All of my love is gone
Accept we may suffer alone or strive to live the truth of love.
I tried to get myself better,
yet I’m turning people away,
I know I said I’d live for this and I still go by that creed, brother I swear that I’m afraid
I’d turn into a hollow shell
Like the one that once betrayed us.
You came to seek salvation, but you ended up being my clone.
