Fade

by Astoria   Dec 22, 2005


These winter nights get longer
as dark washes out
all hopes of a brighter life.

And my head starts to cloud
as you turn my heart blue
from squeezing so hard.
I granted you permission to keep me
but destruction is in your nature.

I have learned how to embrace this pain
just as how you have learned to send it.
Well keep on sending,
I know just how generous you are.
Take out all your problems on me.
I wont speak of the shit I go through
each and every day.
I wouldnt want to rain
on your f ucking parade.
give your problems to me so i can
shove it deep down inside
so you cant see what
i feel....or dont feel.

Yeah, it's true.
I ripped my heart out
and gave it to you.
It's better for you to have mine
you werent born with one.

I love you still
even though you deserve much less.
but You cant subside your hatred
long enough to even look at me.

Your kisses have become poisonous
and your touch is scything.
The bruises still mark
where you have "loved me".

Is this another promise,
Or just another loaded gun?
Take better aim this time
and shoot me through the skull.
So my thoughts can fade
along with the love I once had for you.
