Burning Black

by the middle   Jul 30, 2005


I've got everything i wanted,
everything i thought i'd need.
so why am i still running away?
what the hell is wrong with me?

You gave me all you had,
but fakeness is all i feel.
why isn't your 'love' enough?
I'm still waiting for this to feel real,

Paint my heart a different colour,
save me from this burning black.
it hurts too much to swallow my truth,
the will to love is what i lack.

You gave me reason to doubt,
despite your double denying.
how have i become so emotionless?
in this pain, I should be crying.

when you're with her it makes me cringe,
i feel the tears, but none fall from my eyes.
I'm sick of all your lying,
and all your tired alibis.

Burning black from the inside out,
this pain is too much to bear.
but i don't seem to feel anymore,
so no longer will i care.
