Wavering voices

Why can’t you think about a single thing

that’s not yourself

I’m trying to say goodbye

why must you tear that apart.

overtime I move towards the right choice

all I hear is the waver in your voice

you ruined everything i had

why don’t you stop now and keep the dignity

that you still act like you have

there’s nowhere to turn now

you’re not better than me at all anymore

and I have the right to chose loneliness

don’t you try to take that from me

of course you’ll put yourself down

and say that I should leave

but it’s all just and act to

make me feel like,

I couldn’t live without you in my heart

you fucking thief 

you stole what was left of me

picked up the pieces just to tear me up

and every second that i lie in parts

i grow further from the that I felt at the start

Forget

I never saw you going

it was all so right

until you saw the light

and it this time

it wasn’t mine

Forget everything

you’ve ever felt about me

please forget everything

you’ve ever felt about me

So darling Im leaving tonight

I promise no more lies

it’s like trying  to see the light when you’re blind

I promised to leave you behind

don’t say I didn’t try

I loved you more than my life this time

Fade, away.

so this is what it means when they say heartbreak

well baby no i’ve never felt this way

well would you please say what’s on your mind

So i don’t have to find out the hard way

I dare you try

rack that pretty little head

was I the last one in your bed?

I’ve felt better off dead

but I can’t explain

the pain it takes just to brave the day

and keep the tears off your pretty little face

Let me fade away

so this is how it feels when you have to partake

in everyday activities in vain

well could find another way to takeaway my pride

I don’t feel alive

I dare you to find

a single section of time

when everything was just right

dear you’re so very left behind

Why can’t I say goodbye

I’ve felt better off dead

but I can’t explain

the pain it takes just to brave the day 

and keep the tears off your pretty little face

Let me fade away

ohh let me fade away

you took the light from day

let my fade away 

baby

let me fade
