Don't pretend you care.
Don't say I was your friend
If you are going to leave me in the end.
Leave me in the shadows of your mind.
Let cobwebs and dust blind my eyes.
Allow my thoughts to stall.
Leave me here to bleed.
Let these cold haunting words lull me to sleep.
Leave me here to bleed.
The world never cared.
It left me here broken and scared.
So just walk into your future.
Abandon me to this torture.
Leave me here to bleed.
Let these cold haunting words lull me to sleep.
Leave me here to bleed.
The winds whispered my wishes to the stars.
Dark empty promises and yet the silence betrays
This fear in my eyes.
Still, you remain and say that I'll be fine.
You don't understand that I have crossed the line.
I do not understand why you care.
Nor do I comprehend why you share the love and joy you have found.
Leave me here to bleed.
Let these cold haunting words lull me to sleep.
Leave me here to bleed.
All I want is to be free.
But I am too afraid of this sorry state that is me.
The worth of my life is measured in pain.
I have never heard anyone calling my name.
Leave me here to bleed.
Let these cold haunting words lull me to sleep.
Leave me here to bleed.
Just leave.
Just leave me-
I am trapped in the shadows.
Among the dry bones and rubble.
All I ever do is stumble.
I live life in the whispers.
Don't leave me here to bleed.
Stop the cold haunting words seducing me to sleep.
Don't leave me here to bleed.
Don't leave.
Please don't leave...
