Empty words feel like lies.
No matter how many times we apologize.
We're never gonna escape our past.
We live these days like yesterday was the last.
Nothing we do will ever replace what we've done.
Our demons keep reminding us because they feed off of our blood.
Tearing us apart inside, because it's how they get their fun.
We walk around like zombies carrying the weight of our mistakes.
We've fucked up too many times to cross over to the other side,
That's why loneliness became our fate.
Now all that we have left are the scars that we hide and the pain that we made.
Pretending that we don't believe in regrets.
But the bruises on our hearts tell far too many secrets.
Slowly, but without any caution,
We tore each other down until we ran out of options.
Resentment is all that we have left now.
But we both know that we'll never admit our fears out loud.
We're perfect for each other because we're both heartless.
We formed a love from spite and narcissism.
I can handle our fate if you can accept my pain.
The truth of what we've done to each other will always remain.
Even though we killed our expectations and it will never be the same,
There's a darkness in my soul that loves to feel this pain.
I feed off of your lies because I need someone to blame.
Maybe that's because the truth is that I've always been insane.
