"To let you go"

These ramshackled memories are all that I have.
And I know they're not leaving
They're just making me sad.

I tried to suppress them...
I tried to pretend...
but trying was useless...
it's the same in the end.

You see what you want to...
That's just how It is.
With all that you've taken...
I've nothing to give!

Quiet, sleepless,
peaceful beats...
inside my chest they
still repeat...
the same old rhythm ,
song and tune...
Melodic points that light this room.

Im weighted down.
The night is black.
It's hard to breathe.
I can't go back!

You've poisoned me.
That much I know
That's what it took
To let you go.
