Warned

I told you you wouldn't like it
But we kept playing this game
Cheating at every turn
Smiling in the face of shame

I warned you to leave me be
Stubborn and righteous
Where are we now?
Right where he left us

Nothing is for free
Not even salvation
Don't you lie to me
And press redemption

Years and years and years
The river runs dry
While my cup runs over
You're never around
To ask why

I killed your god
With the blink of an eye
The only sin to atone
Is living for a lie

I won't let you kill me
For an apology
I won't let you kill me
For a fucking apology

No one cares anymore
Shedding my skin a word at a time
No one cares anyway
I'm just bleeding out line by line

Sigh and grip the pen
Here we go again
Life is better lived than judged
And they'll do it with a shrug

I won't let you die
Without you knowing why
I won't let you disappear
Without feeling my spit in your eye
