You never really cared.
So why do you pretend?
That I was ever really a friend?
Just go on with your life.
Leave me in the shadows of your mind.
Let dust and cobwebs block my eyes.
Leave me here to bleed.
Let these cold haunting words lull me to sleep.
Just leave me here to bleed.
I care too much to let you see.
This sorry state that is me.
So why do you stay here and be
The one that's trying to comfort me?
You never really care.
Do not pretend.
Don't whisper lies that you cannot defend.
Just go away into the future.
Leave me locked away in this torture.
I cannot understand your kindness.
Leave me here to bleed.
Let these cold haunting words lull me to sleep.
Leave me here to bleed.
Let the wind whisper of stories I dream.
Leave me...
Leave me here to-
Don't leave...
Please don't leave me all alone.
I'm wasting away among these dry bones.
I do not understand why you care.
Nor do I comprehend why you would share
This joy and love you have found.
But please...
Don't leave...
