You are the one
That rips out my heart
And stomps it
Over and over again
Stop acting like you care and show me your true skin
Your skin, your skin
I cannot shake
The smell of it
I shouldn't be
So nostalgic for
Something that never existed
But I just want you to know
I see you every night
Your face hides behind my eyelids
The last words you said to me
Live in the back of my mind
Is it possible
To stay awake for days
So I'll never see your face
And wake up with your name
On my lips
Your voice is ringing in my ears
Like the loudest of bells
Stop acting like you care and show me your true skin
Your skin, your skin, your skin
I cannot shake
The smell of it
I hope you're sleeping well tonight
Because I'm
Sleep deprived
Until I die.
