The Damage You've Left Me With
Your words are loaded
With promises and kind words
Then when something goes wrong
The gun goes off
With no trace of you to be found
Im tired of picking the bullets from my chest
Im done listening to the door creak open and close
From each time you choose to come back in my life
You told me you'd catch me when I fell
Well I fell 20 stories high
And hit the ground
While you stared with amused eyes
You've left me abandoned
Ears filled with lies
A heart crowded with bullets
And a damaged soul
I didn't know it could be true,
But you've damaged me in ways
I could never undo
With promises and kind words
Then when something goes wrong
The gun goes off
With no trace of you to be found
Im tired of picking the bullets from my chest
Im done listening to the door creak open and close
From each time you choose to come back in my life
You told me you'd catch me when I fell
Well I fell 20 stories high
And hit the ground
While you stared with amused eyes
You've left me abandoned
Ears filled with lies
A heart crowded with bullets
And a damaged soul
I didn't know it could be true,
But you've damaged me in ways
I could never undo
