I’m afraid of what it all means
I’m in love with a shadow, but a shadow that bleeds
I’m a mess; I can’t pick myself up and take myself home
I’m on my own; out here in the wilderness, I am all alone
I’m alone, I’m alone
Out here in the wilderness, I am on my own
And I’m changing, but not the same way (Not the same way) that you have
I’m trying to keep these demons away (These demons away)
But they burst from the surface and it’s making me nervous
Can’t stand to sleep here on my own anymore
Let me out
Can’t see my face behind the smoke
I used to know where I was destined to be
You weren’t always this way
But I still followed you into catastrophe
And I’m changing, but not the same way (Not the same way) that you have
I’m trying to keep these demons away (These demons away)
But they burst from the surface and it’s making me nervous
Can’t stand to sleep here on my own anymore
Would you die for me? Cause I would kill for you
I always knew I’d be the death of you
My hands are stained by a memory; my eyes are slain by what’s within me
It’s killing me, it’s killing me

(You lost me, you lost me, you lost me, oh)
(You lost me, you lost me, you lost me, oh)
Right now the only thing I can say is, ‘I hope you wake up one day
And realise that what you’ve done only leaves yourself to blame’
I fought endlessly for you, I tried to make your dreams come true
And if it wasn’t for me you’d still be in agony of the thought of ever telling the truth
You don’t know how much I cared for you
I gave you everything
Let you take something from me
That you didn’t really need
I was a game to you, just someone else to play
Honey, let me tell you something
I don’t miss seeing your face
And if I had one last minute with you in the same room (I’d tell you everything)
I’d tell you everything I adored about you so you could know what you do
You made me think I was something special then you went and cut me down (Always lost never found)
Thank fuck I wasn’t so caught up on the fact you didn’t stay around
But I learnt one thing from you
It’s that you shouldn’t trust someone that doesn’t know you do
And you let me believe we lost it all because of me
That our whole world came crashing down because I wanted to be free
But what you don’t understand is I loved you more than somebody can
And all I got in return was another name to burn
And if I had one last minute with you in the same room (I’d tell you everything)
I’d tell you everything I adored about you so you could know what you do
You made me think I was something special then you went and cut me down (Always lost never found)
Thank fuck I wasn’t so caught up on the fact that you didn’t stay around
I won’t hold it against you but I’ll take it out now
It’s been a long time since you broke my heart and threw it on the ground
Were you too blind to see that I only wanted
The best for you and me, were you ever listening or even paying attention?
So sit up there with your light on, I can see you turning into her
The girl you always promised yourself you’d never even consider
That you’d never even consider at all (Never consider)
So what the hell (What the hell) are you doing?
Fuck you
All I see is a monster in me because that’s what you told me I was
But now I know that was all for show and you were the snake all along
What the fuck are you doing? Who the hell are you now?
I guess I kept you on your feet for so long and now that I’m gone you’ve already fallen down

Are you here by your own hands?
Was it your choice, baby, or was it theirs?
I can see you crying now
Your eyes are saying there was no other way out
It’s all okay; you’re safe here
Maybe one day they will fear
They’ll be haunted by their words and their attitudes
They’ll be imprisoned by the thoughts that they threw on you
There’s nothing they can do (There’s nothing they can do)
There’s nothing they can do (There’s nothing they can do)
They’ll be haunted by their words and their attitudes
No one gets away with murder (I know, I know)
That’s the way I see it now your life is over
You may have been the one to spill the blood
But you weren’t the force behind your heart saying I give up (I give up)
They’ll be haunted by their words and their attitudes
They’ll be imprisoned by the thoughts that they threw on you
There’s nothing they can do (There’s nothing they can do)
There’s nothing they can do (There’s nothing they can do)
They’ll be haunted by their words and their attitudes
It’s all okay; you’re safe here
Maybe one day they will fear
It’s all okay; you’re safe here
Maybe one day they will disappear
They’ll be haunted (I know) by their words and their attitudes (I know)
They’ll be imprisoned by the thoughts that they threw on you
There’s nothing they can do (There’s nothing they can do)
There’s nothing they can do (There’s nothing they can do)
They’ll be haunted by their words and their attitudes

Thinking on it again; every word we said
Never thought it would end the way it did
Friend of mine, there’s been a change (Been a change)
Situations shaded grey
Picture–perfect, precious
How did it come down (Come down) to this? (To this)
Faded dreams
Nothing seems (To be the same)
Thinking on it again; every word we said (Every word we said)
Never thought it would end the way it did (The way it did)
You’d live a life so timeless because you were always flawless
Forever didn’t take too long to end
I’ll be waiting here till then
Never felt this cold before
Imagining you falling to the floor
A desperate prayer for comfort
We both know you never found it (Never found it)
Still I hope that you hear mine (Cause I’m scratching at the walls)
I lay awake every single night (With tears in my calls)
Love never dies but it tortures till there’s nothing left beating inside
Thinking on it again; every word we said (Every word we said)
Never thought it would end the way it did (The way it did)
You’d live a life so timeless because you were always flawless
Forever didn’t take too long to end
I’ll be waiting here till then
Till then…

Come crashing down
I should’ve known from the moment that I first met you that it would be this way
You’re as unreasonable as you are competitive but it’s all a waste
You can’t possibly hope to touch me; you’re going nowhere fast
If what you have is truly a monument then that means that it’s supposed to last
I sense a grudge; I sense envy (I sense envy)
I sense a twisted fucking jealousy
I sense a grudge; I sense envy
Give it up, kid; you’re never gonna be me
Make your lists and choose your shows
Your days are numbered; God knows
When it comes time to reach success you’ll always come out second best
But that’s what you get with an attitude like that
That’s how it is when you put your faith in stabbing people in the back
Fake amends will never hold, just like the bullshit that you sold to your ‘friends’
It’s fucking getting old
Come crashing down
Come crashing down
Come crashing down
Move
I sense a grudge; I sense envy (I sense envy)
I sense a twisted fucking jealousy
I sense a grudge; I sense envy
If you’re gonna be two–faced at least make one of them pretty

Didn't want an invitation to destined tragedy
Nothing good has ever come from being too happy
Right now I feel like ripping out my heart would be best
Better than feeling it break up inside of my hollow chest
Whoa, I can't get over how much I've tried
Whoa, let myself be a victim of love's fatal bite
What happened to forever?
I thought that's what we both had planned
I was too blind to ever even hope to try and understand
That everything has to die, including you and I
Whoa, whoa
Break me down, I guess there isn't any other way out
Break me down, I guess there's nothing left here to be found
(Break me down)
What happened to forever?
I thought that's what we both had planned
I was too blind to ever even hope to try and understand
That everything has to die, including you and I
I never wanted to have to look into your eyes (for the last time)
There's nothing good about goodbyes
I never wanted to have to look into your eyes (for the last time)
There's nothing good about goodbyes
What happened to forever?
I thought that's what we both had planned
I was too blind to ever even hope to try and understand
That everything has to die, including you and I
What happened to forever?
I thought that's what we both had planned
I was too blind to ever even hope to try and understand
That everything has to die, including you and I
Everything has to die
