You need me more than I need you

You could watch my eyes break open, as the rain soaked us both in my disdain
But you wouldn't know how to cure my disease
Of wanting the metal more than you ever day,
and dying to make myself bleed (night-day-night-day-night-day)

There's only a certain amount of months I can last,
living sleepless, dreamless, lifeless
I try so hard to find my love for you inside of me,
but I'm still trying to find myself

If only I knew exactly what to look for

These heart tethers are still fragile
Hanging loosely from the dismembered skin of open wounds
It's whole, but hard to reach
Honestly, I don't know what you see in me

But I know I see something in you

This trapped mind leaves me one short of a well hung noose,
and a silver bullet
Truth is, leaving you I'm not sure I'd feel anything

I'm not sure your whisper remedies will help me last through this Spring
Because Summer's coming, and it's hard to take

The lasting marks of an innocence gone bad
But it's much more than that

I need you there, without the commitment
I need to know I'm more than "the girl with a pretty face"
And if you really want to
I'm allowing you to fill the empty space,
that he gave to me

I need to know for sure, that you'll never run away
