Shredded Lingerie

Trying to sleep
It's useless over the sound of my numbing heart
No looking back
No forgiving the past
Now it's nothing
Empty space encompasses the walls I've built up around me
Their subtle protection is failing me once again
Maybe this isn't meant for me
Maybe I'm just a fool for your wounds
There's no point in trying to see the truth in your words
When I don't even want to open my eyes
I'll try this for one last time
Even though it feels like the first
Empty promises just took me over again
I'm drowning in the darkness
I can't save you
You're too far gone
Try to grab my hand
Watch me slowly drift away
Not even your lie of love can save me from these tears
Happiness is a thing of the past
Don't try to please me with your actions
Trying is a waste of breath
Even though my breathing stopped long ago
Stick your dagger through my side again
It's used to its place within my by now
Keep your head steady so you don't miss my next move
No one is ready for this one
No one ever knew
This mask of security is crashing to the ground
A puzzle you can't even put back together
No one knows the pieces to me
Or how long they've been askew
I need this now like you can't believe
I'm slowly breaking apart into less than nothing
This heart isn't big enough for the both of us
