See what I see,
These demons inside
Won't leave me be,
And I'm falling apart
From the inside.
Take me away,
Nothing is the same,
And I swear I can't breathe
Every time I see your face.
Stone-by-stone,
I'll tear it all apart
Because nothing is
The same as it once was.
I've lost sight,
These demons have blinded me,
And nothing looks like home.
How can I breathe now?
You're gone and darkness has
Filled up my eyes as I glimpse
Nothing beyond this barren waste
Of what I have become.
It's not the same,
You seem different.
You've changed, you seem...
Happier without me.
Maybe I was just an obstacle
On your path through life, or
Maybe I was just another stone
Waiting to be thrown.
How can I ever breathe again?
Each breath I take rattles,
It feels as though my lungs are
Weighed down, and there's
Nothing I can do.
Pry this darkness from my eyes,
I swear something has changed
Because you don't remove the darkness,
Not anymore.
He does.
