I want to scream I want to die

I want to bleed until my veins collapse

I want to drown in the tears that I cry

You broke my heart and kicked away the scraps



Took all I could to ask you why

And you couldn’t answer me

Not with a certain tone in your reply

When you heard my painful plea



You held me when I cried

You held me and I felt pain

You held me and it felt so right

But you pulled away again



Suddenly that rightness did so wrong

It ripped my heart out again

Because you didn’t feel it all along

And all I can feel is pain



I don’t understand what I’ve done

But I know it must have been bad

I’ve turned you away, you’re on the run

And now I’ve lost what I never had



When you left I said I was fine

And I think you actually believed me

But when I was alone I broke down crying

I hit the breaking point, I hit my knees



Now I’m a zombie, nothing to care

No energy flowing, but my mind races

My heart is broken, there’s a big hole there

And I can’t fill up the empty spaces



And my love for you still flows

Like a raging river drowning the bank

And I want to explode

But my heart just falls where it sank
