I'm falling down
and you're not here to catch my fall
I shut my eyes when your around
I hold my breathe to kill the sound
-----------------------------------------
Write your name on my chest in k e r o s e n e .
Spark a match and you won't be cold again.
-----------------------------------------
My eyes burn from these tears
You'd think I'd learn over the years
Good things won't last forever
-----------------------------------------
I had no idea where my head was at
But if my heart says I’m sorry can we leave it at that
-----------------------------------------
I think that

the truth is

I'm everything

that I hate
-----------------------------------------
Your words break me down
My thoughts on you continue to hurt
Its what I do
Its what I think
Its how I fucking function
-----------------------------------------
because by now..
i know you better than you know yourself and i know what you really need.
what you need, or i need.. but either way this is where you should be --
here with me, or i'll b l e e d
so much that you won't believe..
-----------------------------------------
I had the notion that you'd make me change my ways
My bad habits would be gone in a matter of days
I had the feeling that you'd open up my eyes
To a whole new world that had since been in disguise

But that day will most likely never come for me
And it's just my luck to end up getting stuck
to everything you are

So tonight I'll sit and pick apart your pictures
And overanalyze your words
But the truth is that I've never fallen so hard
It's taking everything in me
just to forget your sweater so far
