The emptiness makes me ache
And missing you makes it worse
I don't know if I can erase
All of the words
You said to me, was it all a lie?
I thought I knew you better
And I thought you knew me too
But we knew that we couldn't
And we knew that we shouldn't
Except in in that moment
When nothing else mattered
But how much I wanted you
And you wanted me too
And when you were holding me
Somehow it all went away
The loud colors faded to gray
And I could finally quit running
And give in to you
And your heat warming my body
Begging for more, begging for love
Trying to get me to open up
But I gave too much
And you never quit taking
Now every time I think of you
Every time I hear your voice
All those memories are replaced
By my feelings of guilt and shame
And I can't move forward
Because there was never closure
And I never asked
To keep that door open
We simply agreed
This would be best
And now I can't breathe
I can't even think straight
You've hijacked my brain
And there is no escaping
From you
