Thereafter Lyrics by Dormiveglia

0

I tried
I really meant to love you
You got my heart
Stay out of my mind
That's where my demons hide
Things you can't see
The man you need who I won't let myself be
I tried to explain
You never understand me

Here's to you two, and I mean both of you
Out of spite? An honest mistake?
False hope, false faith
I'm conflicted every single day that I wake
I understand the concept of tough love
But without a conscience or a beating chest
You become an empty vessel, need to be laid to rest

Innocence doesn't suit you well
So drop the act and the story that you sell
I'm not buying it
Quit crying and face the problems that you made yourself
In a sense, I can see your point of view
We're all fucking humans in what we pursue
But you didn't have to let those basic urges become the salt to my wound
But you chose to in every little thing that you do
With every move you make, every bone in me shakes
But I don't have it in me to spite you

All in all, what that I can see is an everlasting pattern in this heartless city
Doesn't matter if it's you or if it's me
The viscous circle creeps around eventually

Do his hands soothe you the way that mine used to?
Does he understand the things that you have been through?
He knew me like I know you
And if I could go back, I would have stayed

So when you're wide awake and you can't sleep
Will you think of me?
And when he runs away and you've lost all faith
Will you look for me?

I was scared to death
You'd find out you're too good for me
But I know I'm the one you fucking need
Don't say that you're not right for me
'Cause I know it's not what you really think

Good memories gone to waste
Say goodbye to the way your innocence used to taste
The smell of cigarettes on her breath:
A reminder that you're all I have left
But I don't know you anymore
You said "move on, things changed,"
Then you slammed the door
No one else comes in
I can't hurt anymore
But when i did, the thought of you kept me breathing
