Drawing blood from forgotten friends In a vein attempt to feel normal again No loving exits, no words to say To the pieces of me you made me throw away You destroyed my life And these are the words I could never say, This is your goodbye, Fuck you
2.
It's been two weeks since pulling out my first heart All that's left is the anger, that was there from the start Stuck in reverse down this one way street, I try and hold my mouth but I can't fucking speak I try and open my mouth, but only silence comes out I wonder if she knew, I never flinched as I walked away I turned our future fears into our nothing years, That's been a month now, still haven't felt a thing Feeling so hated for playing the honest game Walking out your door, my heart begins to soar This love I've abandoned never did look good on me This love I've abandoned, was just one big fucking mistake I wonder if she knew, I never flinched as I walked away

This is the disappointment, It's all unravelling Passing out on these pillows that we used to share, Lying to myself, helpless with myself Thinking through dead end memories What did you really mean to me? Sick to my stomach Of staring at these four walls Its the saddest sight, I've not slept enough tonight I've tried to talk myself out of this, but I'm all out of words In this love story absent of the love, Standing so close together But our hearts are beating out of time, Clasping hands so tightly but we're barely holding on I have to let you know This goodbye will leave a stain on my mind And as these words linger on our lips, With each dying breath we hang our heads So as the train pulls away I tell myself that I'm okay without you And as my heart begins to pull away, I tell myself it'll be okay And I don't miss you, I'm not missing you

Everything's the same,feeling so fucking drained Voice stretched out across discordant tones that fill up my life Maybe I'm just wrapped up in self pity Or maybe it's the thought of all this repetition My head is pounding, But it's only silence coming out these headphones I'll wait forever on a tomorrow that never comes, It's all I have Driving but I can't see the road anymore, I can never find the turn off My tank is running so low It's running scared because I've got nowhere to go I've waited through this life, Wading through a life I barely know as my own, Giving up, instead of growing up It's all I've ever known The cycle has to end And I'm still waiting I'm still waiting for my guiding light to reignite All my teenage dreams are coming back to laugh at me But I'm climbing out this fucking hole It's taking 24 years to dig I'm waiting for my guiding light to reignite
