Wilting Away

*This is another song that I wrote, the format is different then usual, but I think it is not too dificult to understand... *

Turn to her when the lights go out, and you're looking for help. You know nothing can save you (but me) no one will take you, and the end is drawing so near. Cry on your knees when you see every precious moment disintegrate inot ashes, see only my face when those eyes lose all warmth.

-chorus-
Don't you believe that I can see behind your lying eyes?
(only my flesh can satisfy you)
Pretend I mean nothing when our memories come floding in.
(cause' I'm all theres ever been.
Your tears will never quench my thirst.
(You think I'm not worth it)
Clutch my hand while there's still life in you.
(it's my turn to say it's through.)

F___ your false I love you's it's about time I see your wings fall. Time heals nothing, I'm leaving you behind. You wanted this, you dug your own miserable grave. Go lye is self pitty knowing you threw everything away. Hear my laughter, remember my kiss...was she good enough for you? All is fair in love and bliss.

-chorus-
Don't you believe that I can see behind your lying eyes?
(only my flesh can satisfy you)
Pretend I mean nothing when our memories come floding in.
(cause' I'm all theres ever been.
Your tears will never quench my thirst.
(You think I'm not worth it)
Clutch my hand while there's still life in you.
(it's my turn to say it's through.)

I want to rip out your heart, hear you cry apologies until I know you have had enough. Your future is as clear as crystal you've lost your only chance at love. Your eyes fill with tears as they slowly begin to fade, begging for forgiveness swearing this time you'll change. My darling your lips are slowly turning blue. I admit you alomst broke me, but I'm taking all life from you.

(pretend I mean nothing)

-different chorus-
Don't you believe that I can see behind your lying eyes?
(only my flesh can satisfy you)
Pretend I mean nothing when our memories come floding in.
(cause' I'm all theres ever been)
Your blood staind my dreams
(a reward for your deceit)
Give in, let go, it's your turn to be alone.
(I have no more love to show)

Now that you feel yourself slowly slip away into darkness do you have any final words to say? Feel my hands around your heart; whats left of you has now just wilted away.
