Smog

The bleeding tears of sorrow and strife
I'm being scarred by an invisible knife
Always coming back to hurt me more
Getting deeper, nearer to my core

My heart is crying with each empty beat
My heart has been trampled by too many feet
It's never gonna be the same
Not while I can remember your name

A meaningless point to focus on
Just to get rid of you
Such a short distance and yet so far
Never again can be true

My eyes are blind, too blurred
My ears deaf, but to my screaming
Will you be coming back this time?
Will I just keep on dreaming?

Will I get over this addiction?
Can I get out of this condition?
Can I stop my heart's pollution?
Lose myself in prayers of absolution

I need to get you out of sight
I need to hide this fearful drug
You keep on reaching for me
You keep taking me for a mug

You make me forget myself
I can't find it anymore
Left with a memory of what I was
Rain on my cuts and bruises sore
