Is that me looking back from the mirror?

Is that me with the scars on her arms?

Is that me from a couple of minutes?

Is that me without a beating heart?


I drained the life from every rainbow

I made your eyes rain with tears

I killed your cheerful shining halo

It was me, it was me


I stare at all my loves they're dead

And I lose all my sanity

They're cold and I try so hard to warm them

But I never had mercy. It was me.
