When push comes to shove,
And you're all alone standing beside your ghost.
I tried to tell myself that it's just a phase.
Because in my eyes no one should ever be treated this way.
Making it hard to breathe with a taste that burns my tongue.
I'm still fighting my demons but this time they've already won.
But I gave up, a long time ago.
Telling lies to myself to fall asleep at night
Your heart of stone makes it hard to believe you're alive.
Can't you tell you're building walls to keep yourself from the inside?
I keep on trying over and over to skip your stone to the other side.
Tear open my chest, you stole my soul from me.
Tear open my chest, now you lie beneath the waves.
I won't let you in anymore. Lock me in my own world and throw away the key. It's too dark for anybody but me.
