Broken promises

You broke your promise
So I broke mine
My heart and my life is running out of time
The sand is running through the hour glass
Another bell rings another empty glass
Another high
Another try
Another night I'm screaming and asking why
It hurts so much
Why won't it stop
Why won't time reverse
When did I get this curse
The blood washes the slate clean
With every cut I control
I control the pain I feel
So that's the deal...I cut or smoke if I want to feel
If you could would you take this away?
If you could would you change the darkness to day?
If you could would you save me?
If you could...would you bare it all in my place?
If you could....would you save me from myself?
Or would you just put me back on the shelf where you keep the things you wish to store
The things you don't care for anymore
Maybe you could save me....if you could...would you?
