What do you do when you know something's bad for you
And you still can't let go?
I was na�ve
Your love was like candy
Artificially sweet
I was deceived by the wrapping
Got caught in your web
And I learned how to plead
I was prey in your bed
And devoured completely
And it hurts my soul
Cos I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my suffering
I hate to show that I've lost control
Cos I, I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need to walk away from
I need to get away from it
I need to walk away from it
Get away, walk away, walk away
I should have known
I was used for amusement
Couldn't see through the smog
It was all an illusion
Now I've been licking my wounds
Woke up in love and seems so great
We both can't subdue
Darling you hold me prisoner (prisoner)
I'm about to break
I can't stop this ache
I'm addicted to your lure
and I'm feeling for a cure
Every step I take
Leads to one mistake
I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need...
I can make it
It's some state I'm in
Getting nothing everytime
What did I do to deserve
The pain of this moment
And everywhere I turn
I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need to walk away from
I need to get away from it
I need to walk away from it
Get away, walk away, walk away
Everytime I try to grasp for air
I get smothered and this sky, it's never over, over
Seems I never wake from this nightmare
I let out a solid breath, let it be over, over
Inside I'm screaming
Breaking, pleading the world
Ahh...
My heart has been bruised
So sad but it's true
Each peep reminds me of you
It hurts my soul
Cos I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my suffering
I hate to show that I've lost control
Cos I, I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need...
I'm about to break
I guess I missed it
I'm addicted to your lure
And I'm feeling for a cure
Every step I take
Leads to one mistake
I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need...
It's been in the past for a while
I get a flash and I smile
Am I crazy?
Still miss you baby
It was real, it was right
But it burned too hot to survive
All that's left is
All these ashes
Where does the love go?
I don't know
When it's all said and done
How could I be
losing you forever?
After all the time we
spent together
I have to know why
I had to lose you
Now you've just become
Like everything I'll
never find again
At the bottom of the ocean
In a dream you appeared
For a while you were here
So I keep sleeping
Just to keep you with me
I'll draw a map
Connect the dots
With all the memories
that I've got
What I'm missing
I'll keep re-living
Where does the love go?
I don't know
When it's all set and done
How could I be
losing you forever?
After all the time we
spent together
I have to know why
I had to lose you
Now you've just become
Like everything I'll
never find again
At the bottom of the ocean
You don't have to love me
For me to, baby, ever understand
Just know of the time
that we both had
And I don't ever
want to see you sad,
be happy
Cause I don't want to hold you
If you don't want to tell
me you love me babe
Just know I'm gonna
have to walk away
I'll be big enough for
both of us to say, be happy
Could you cry just a little?
Pretend that you're feeling a little more pain?
Die just a little...
And baby I would feel just a little less pain.
I want you to hurt. To feel just a little of what I am feeling.
It might be easy for you. To forget, to move on.
You say you have no self-control around me. You say you like me. You say you're sorry. Yet your words don't mean a damn thing. Instead you leave me here. Stranded. Left to wonder. Left alone.
But the truth is... I'd do it again to relive what we had.
Man ... that's sad.
Isn't it ironic how you always do what you say you wouldn't.
Say what you don't mean.
Do what you said you wouldn't do.
Promised you wouldn't fall for someone, but find yourself falling so deep. So rapidly, like the waves sweeping the sandy beach on a stormy winter's night.
Like jumping off the cliff and getting a sudden rush of emotions.
Find yourself acting incongruent with what your head is telling you.
Instead you listen to your heart. To your soul. And you just end up falling. Unexpectedly. Uninvited.
But when you hit the ground, you are left with nothing. Nothing but the despair, the hurt, the emptiness.
