NOTHING REAL
You walked out, cursing my name and slamming shut the door
You left me covering up my broken self, you left me crying on the floor
Unhealed wounds opened up again, fresh pain brewing in my veins
I remembered all the times you apologized,
Saying you'll never do this again
Each time I believed them, each time I'd forgive
And each time I'll be forgiving, for as long as I live.
Love what a strange thing it is, making you see things that aren't true
Love, what a great thing it is, even after all this, it makes me come back to you
We started off with a smile, roses and cheesy dates
We started off with those little kisses in those empty lanes
Your shirts became my nightgowns
You words became my lullaby
With you near, my frowns would turn upside down
And the most feared thing became a goodbye
You'd hug me from the back, and say I'm beautiful
You'd caress my cheek and say, I lighten up ur darkest nights I lighten up the dull
But now, all those are just memories
Fading into a dream
Those are now just stories
Not things that are seen.
The roses became knives, as they pierce and prod my skin
The love notes that you'd send me, turned into fights and empty feelings.
You're speaking, but it's the voice of someone else
You say that you love, but you can't even convince yourself
It's kills me and tears me up
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
You say your sorry, but it's not enough,
To take all the pain away..
There's nothing that's left to feel
There's nothing left that is real.
