WDD
How can anyone live after they’ve died inside
Forced to suffer in silence because there’s nowhere to hide
There’s no absence of days that I’m not reminded
Of what you took from me, laughing that I couldn’t find it
You watched me struggle the days I could find no meaning
Rarely allowing me to see, only while I was dreaming
It hurts with every meaningless breath I take The pain just hides behind every smile that I fake
And you just leave me out here lost and on my own
Because you’ve taken the only thing that’s ever felt like home
So why don’t you just tell me which way I should go
Because nothing is familiar and I don’t fucking know
I can’t follow your footsteps, there’s none to lead the way
And there’s nothing left to tell me that everything will be okay
Only the things haunting me that I wish I could forget
But I won’t until I bury those secrets that I’ve kept
There’s nothing left beyond this point that I care to fucking see
And I know that when I turn around, you’ll be right behind me
I should just die right here and finally destroy you
Along with every thought of this that you’ve made me hold onto
Unfortunately you are the only thing nobody can avoid
The proof of that is in every life you have destroyed
I could wait for you but I rather take my own instead
I’d finally be free of you because not even you can raise the dead
Forced to suffer in silence because there’s nowhere to hide
There’s no absence of days that I’m not reminded
Of what you took from me, laughing that I couldn’t find it
You watched me struggle the days I could find no meaning
Rarely allowing me to see, only while I was dreaming
It hurts with every meaningless breath I take The pain just hides behind every smile that I fake
And you just leave me out here lost and on my own
Because you’ve taken the only thing that’s ever felt like home
So why don’t you just tell me which way I should go
Because nothing is familiar and I don’t fucking know
I can’t follow your footsteps, there’s none to lead the way
And there’s nothing left to tell me that everything will be okay
Only the things haunting me that I wish I could forget
But I won’t until I bury those secrets that I’ve kept
There’s nothing left beyond this point that I care to fucking see
And I know that when I turn around, you’ll be right behind me
I should just die right here and finally destroy you
Along with every thought of this that you’ve made me hold onto
Unfortunately you are the only thing nobody can avoid
The proof of that is in every life you have destroyed
