My screams are screamed in vein [collab]

[Collab with His Lovely Wife To Be]

Everything you told me, was nothing but a lie
Now the truth is out, and all I do is cry,
You took everything and destroyed me,now all I feel is pain,
You've driven me to insanity, And my screams are screamed in vein.

Everytime I breathe, I bleed a little more,
I keep on cutting deep, each time deeper than before.
You had so many chances, and still you blew them all,
You killed me deep within, And now all I do is fall .

For I am drowning in my emptiness ,
A void deeper than you know,
Because to follow in your shadow,
Was a dangerous place to go

You did the unthinkable,
Now it is an unforgivable riddle,
And once again I find myself,
Stuck right in the middle.

No matter which direction I turn, It will always be wrong
So tell me what does it matter if I am weak, or if I am strong,
I tried so hard to make your day, but nothing I do seems right,
Should I give up, or prolong this fight,I feel my chest growing tight,

And that is why I have done this you see,
All I ever wanted, Was for you to like me for me,
But I guess when it comes to it we cannot agree
And a future with you in my life is too hard to see

For now I know that everything you told me, was nothing but a lie
And now the truth is out, all I do is cry,
You took everything and destroyed me,now all I feel is pain
You've driven me to insanity, And my screams are screamed in vein.

    "You've driven me to insanity, And my screams are screamed in vein."

    One of the greatest lines and wordplays I've ever read...awesome writing here! I loved it--the emotion is only made stronger through your choice of words. I think this would be an amazing song if ever put to music...
