you're a knot in my chest
that won't go away
no matter how hard i try
or how hard i pray
you're a bullet in my mind
that i can't get out
seeping into all of my thoughts
blood dripping out of my mouth
sick to my stomach
live to the fullest
but i don't wanna live
if it's not with you
sweet love of mine
free from my hands (they used to be intertwined with yours)
and i don't wanna believe
the truth
why are you acting like this
i really wish that we could make amends
because no matter what you say
can't help but think you don't even wanna be friends
you're a mushroom growing
in the dark depths of my brain
you used to be a tree
but now you're the cause of the decay
sick to my stomach
live to the fullest
but i don't wanna live
if it's not with you
sweet love of mine
free from my hands (they used to be intertwined with yours)
and i don't wanna believe
the truth
and now i'm convinced
that you don't give a shit
about me anymore
and i'm sinking to the floor
(fall into it)
melting into the boards
hoping that you get bored
of her soon
i can't stop thinking of her in your room
(get her out)
sick to my stomach
live to the fullest
but i don't wanna live
if it's not with you
sweet love of mine
free from my hands (they used to be intertwined with yours)
and i don't wanna believe
the truth
