Infidelity

Apparently my company's not enough for you these days.
Now I know just where I stand.
When I see infidelity with my own eyes,
I can't just deny it.
I can't believe that I can be replaced.
I can't take the blame for you and I forever.
Sacrifice to survive is a concept new to me.
I did not know I'd have to change.
Realize my whole life I've had it all handed to me.
Born with a silver spoon...
Should I fade away silently?
Does your heart say that you're over me?
Ready to throw us away?
You will see that I can't be replaced.
I can't take the blame for you and I.
You and I forever.
What does she do for you?
I can't be replaced.
I won't take the blame for you and I.
You and I forever.
I'm rotting away here.
Sacrifice to survive when all I did for you meant nothing.
I'm rotting away here. (rotting away from here)
All of your lies all your misconceptions.
I can't believe this is happening to me.
I can't believe it's over.
This time it's really over.

I can't see that far in front of me.
I can't adapt to these changes.
If I can't stand here in front of me
and see that I'm distantly cold.
I can see the time is coming.
I can't even be the one that you wanted now.
I know that time will bring
mending to sorrow. I can't seem
to find a way to make this leave.
Searching for peace and solace.
So far now.
Can't see the light from here.
The fear is consuming me.
Life in agony.
I know that time will bring
mending to sorrow. I can't seem
to find a way to make this leave.
Searching for peace and solace.
I'll find my way.
Shut your eyes I'm gone
to find myself.
Don't wait for me.
I know that time will bring
the independence that I need
in finding ways to make me see
that I don't need your guidance.

You say you want to be with me but I can see it's about you always.
I can't believe you won't concede, not to me. What about what I need?
First time I reached out my hand you pulled back from me.
I can't stay. I won't take this another day.
I'll stand up by myself.
I only need the truth. I don't want to fight with you.
Show me more than words can say. (What do they say?)
My never-ending plea. But if you won't come with me
you know I'll let go. Throw your stones away.
Throwing Stones
The time it takes for you to say to me that you'll be there,
I could have spent time talking to someone who actually cared.
At least have the integrity to be truthful with me.
That's okay. I don't need you to make my way.
I'll stand up by myself.
I only need the truth. I don't want to fight with you.
Show me more than words can say. (What do they say?)
My never-ending plea. But if you won't come with me
you know I'll let go. Throw your stones away.
It takes a lot to break me. (to break me)
With time I might go crazy. (go crazy)
If you always betray me I know I'll fall but rise. (I know I'll fall but rise)
Stronger than before (than before)
You can't take my faith (faith)
I won't let this break me (let this break me)
I can't afflict you.
I only need the truth. I don't want to fight with you.
Show me more than words can say. (What do they say?)
My never-ending plea. But if you won't come with me
you know I'll let go. Throw your stones away.

Hidden inside the soul that is me
Reminded of the way it should be
Taken was the life that I knew
I can't feel... I can't feel the rain
Numb by the truth that lingers in me
You are no more. You'll never be
Nothing that I do will make you here with me
What did I do to deserve this?
You can't be gone.
Perfect display of purity. Adorn for all to see.
Hidden inside this fake smile and the last remnants of me.
This hole in my heart will always bleed
No! You won't be holding me ever again.
I can't stand the thought of being alone.
Perfect display of purity. Adorn for all to see.
Hidden inside this fake smile and the last remnants of me.
(Gone away. You're the one that I wanted and now you're just blowing away into the wind like you wanted. But why did I have to stay? I knew I'd never love someone the way that I loved you)
But now I'm here all alone. What am I to do?
What did I do to deserve this?
Hidden inside is the last breath of me.

The oceans burn. The sky's gone red
It wouldn't have been this way if only I had said (something)
A shadow's fallen on my heart (I can't go on)
You say I must go on but I can't find where to start
I'll see you once again my friend
I'll see your face but I can't see my life without you I'm
Another day is lost and gone
Despair sets in. Will I begin to heal and move on?
This isn't how it's supposed to be (the green has faded)
The natural order disturbed. Now what am I to believe?
I'll see you once again my friend
I'll see your face but I can't see my life without you I am blind
Virtuous led in vain
Not perfect but moral
What reason could he have to take you away?
It wouldn't have been this way if only I had said something.
Another day. Some other way. Another time. Some other place.
There's nothing left for me here.
I'll see you once again my friend
I'll see your face but I can't see my life without you I am blind
I am blind
Blind

As I drift inside out of you.
So I'm wrong. Right as rain again. I'm put on.
Dead to us. We are no more. It's what you want.
Go and crawl back to where you came from darling.
Fake your way again to convince me of a love I believed in.
Feed me stories. Drive me crazy.
Release me from your song.
Give me back the life you've taken from me.
This war of words can't go on.
When you're alone at night and you're dreaming of me
and you're longing for a love you once had, had.
Call upon me. I love you. I'm sorry.
Forgive me. I need you to keep me alive and safe.
Surrender to me my darling. I'll consume the light of your shining soul.
Feed me stories. Drive me crazy.
Release me from your song.
Give me back the life you've taken from me.
This war of words can't go on.
Praise you everyday for nothing. (I can't take this now)
You shattered all of my dreams. (I can't breath)
Sacrifice my life for love.
You promised me the world in vain.
It was all for nothing.
My life will go on. I'll be fine without you.
(Tempt me with your empty words)
I long to see the day when you can't be alone, by yourself,
(Your deceptive eyes... your heartless scheme)
With no one to love you.
(I cannot believe this has gone so far)
With fear as your friend to hold and guide you.
(Please release me now from your song)
Go away. Far from me. Let you in?
(I will not accept. I will not give in. I will not be yours. No. Never again)
Never again!
Feed me stories. Drive me crazy.
Release me from your song.
Give me back the life you've taken from me.
This war of words can't go on.
I thought I'd love you forever. But now? Not ever.
Release me from your song.
Praise you (I can't) every day for nothing (take this now) You shattered all of my dreams .(I can't breathe)
Praise you (I can't) every day for nothing (take this now) You shattered all of my dreams.
Give me back the life you stole.

I'll never forget what I did to continue.
Lost between morals and good judgment.
This darkness creeps in my mind.
What could have been?
I can't see through this forest.
These walls are closing in.
A reason in my life to let me
Out of this prison in my mind
To let me breathe and live again.
This darkness creeps in my mind.
What could have been?
I can't see through this forest.
These walls are closing in.
The person I am now jaded.
What should have been?
I can't see through this forest.
Can't be in my own skin.
The scar is still there.
The pain is still...

You feel it so much but never let anyone in.
So assured, yet, so confused.
Distractions hold you deeper than we could know.
But I never asked your secret... opened that door.
You were not ever on your own.
I was right there for you.
If you had reached out to me...
I'd do anything to save you.
How dare I wish to forget this.
You were not ever on your own.
But how could you have known?
I should have reached out to you...
Helped you find some way to carry on.

I can be sure of one thing
All the times we had are gone
They've faded in my mind
Only because I need them to
Thought I had to be your way
To make things of myself
But in that time I lost what's mine
I can be that but you won't see all the things good inside of me
Wish I knew all the things I know
Had your perfect vision on
I only fooled myself
Thinking false inside my mind
Where is my soul?
Is it still inside?
I can't feel you
I can be that but you won't see all the things good inside of me
Wish I knew then all the things I know now
I have so much to offer but I never got the chance
I just know that I can't be what I am
I can't be. I can't be. What you want me to be
I can be loved. Won't be afraid. Don't try to say I can't love another way
I won't take your love. It will never be.
Because of you I can't be free. Will I see the dawn of another day?
Only time will show the way
I can be that but you won't see all the things good inside of me
Wish I knew then all the things I know now
I can't be that. I won't be that. I can't be.
(I can be sure of one thing and that's me)
You don't own my mind or my body.
Take your spite and let me be.
I have so much to offer
