each time chosen
lodged it ever deeper in my brain
words of passion
mismatched actions
blurred my vision made my color drain
I don't know if you care or even knew
and I'll never know if anything was true
but one more tear
and I swear I'm through
watching myself die of you
your cares - fleeting
my heart - bleeding
soaking up the mess that has been made
promises - broken
my soul - choking
on this puddle borne of crying and shame
I don't know if you care or even knew
and I'll never know if anything was true
but one more tear
and I swear I'm through
watching myself die of you
what I thought I saw
inside your eyes
now just a mirror
for the lies
shows misplaced love
and its glaring price
as I stare
my spirit dies
I don't know if you care or even knew
and I'll never know if anything was true
but one more tear
and I swear I'm through
watching myself die of you
one more tear
and I swear I'm through
watching myself die of you
