lyrics

I know that this isn’t like you, and you know that this isn’t much like me. It’s just the way it has to be. I keep telling myself that things will be alright in the end, but I don’t know if I truly believe it. For the past few months I’ve been hoping and praying to look into Gods eyes, and meet him face to face. Maybe one of these days I can finally see the place where I can escape from the hate that I feel every single day. Why do I feel this way? I ask myself every single day, and it’s a damn shame. If I could take back all the moments wasted, maybe then you’d appreciate it. Drove myself to insanity trying to make you feel something. I wasn’t worth your time, so you won’t be taking anymore of mine. Suffering derives from desire, and all we do is isolate, I hope you can sleep at night. I’m sorry that I couldn’t be anything you want me to be. Erased. You won’t hold an impression. Your side of the bed will remain vacant. Close your eyes and drift into an everlasting slumber to escape from the demons you’ve been hiding. Suffer well child, I can see it in your eyes. Suffering derives from desire, and all we do is isolate. Isolate your mind, wooden eyes. Held captive in your eyes.
