Destructive Heart

I saw it in your eyes
Heard the pain in your sigh
My lonely shadows
Felt your kiss goodbye.

Oh tendrils of dark demons
I can't hold them back
Surfacing from within me
Seeking you to attack.

You think it's you
Not perfect enough
Keeping back the serpents
Sure is real tough.

I can't love you, I can't
I can't let myself tear you apart
With my destructive soul and
My black flawed heart.

But I loved you once
I really truly tried
Slowly you disappeared
Crumbling from the inside.

Scared like an animal
You just ran away
I swore to myself
That would be the last day.

I wouldn't destroy another
I'll never love again
I'll never break their memories
Never make them insane.

I'm made this way
Didn't you know?
Destroying you is the only
Love that I can show.

People like me are always alone
Right down to our last breath
Born alone, live alone, die alone
I can only give you death.
