The Memento Lyrics by The Black Maria

Lead Us to Reason

0

I'll never forget you
But your time to leave is way past due
I have this overwhelming urge
To suck in one good breath and scream
There is no love left inside of me...
This isn't the first time
That I've fallen apart infront of an audience
(Though) the words have changed
The message stays the same
I tried reason
It was all in vain
I wish it didn't have to be, but this song is for you
Now that's entertainment
To watch me fall apart at the knees
And grovel like a slave who
Is begging for a little sympathy
And you danced around on my broken dreams
Celebrated when I made mistakes
This song was written about how much I hate you...
And through all the worst of time
I sat and took it almost every time
I tried to scream but it didn't work
I tried to leave but it didn't work
I wish it didn't have to be but this song is for you...
Now that's entertainment
To watch me fall apart at the knees
And grovel like a slave who
Is begging for a little sympathy
And you danced around on my broken dreams
Celebrated when I made mistakes
This song was written about how much I hate you...
I tried to scream but it didn't work
I tried to leave but it didn't work
I tried, I tried to...
Now that's entertainment
To watch me fall apart at the knees
And grovel like a slave who
Is begging for a little sympathy
And you danced around on my broken dreams
Celebrated when I made mistakes
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you
This must be love
