With every passing second the closest to me will defend without a second thought
With every hanging necklace you remember what I meant when I refused to take it off
With every single breath, everything that I regret don't show up with a knock
That I become a man, I see you with a new perspective cause I'm not enough
I spent my life living in a coffin
Nails embedded in my hands my prayers couldn't stop them
I justify the violence you gave by giving options
I say fuck it all and lose sight of all emotion
You say with a heavy heart "this is where you
The first one to dive in, and the last one to resurface
While the clock ticking, your rotary phone ringing
Every component will be working on its own
Each blade of grass, I knew this wouldn't last
With each blade of glass, you cut right through my veins
Im looking at you too its always been the same
God bless your iris until you find my lady crying in the winter storm of fire
Deep breaths to get you out of bed
Every morning l recall you say my name the last of my eternal flame
Always new elevations with you
New experience with you, paid dues
With every starry night, you look up at the sky and find me dancing in the light
With every blow of smoke, you still want to hold me even with my dying lungs
You find the satisfaction, of laying down your shield and sword and entering the castle
I finally find peace, where paranoia doesn't take the better parts of me
Make you feel alive for you
Putting everything that I can to the side for you
Miss my pretty lady but I know I'm not the one for you
Turning back the time to try again and be with you
I know you're not coming back but I'll always hold this love for you
Who am I to tell you what you can or can not do?
You were always meant for more
I got to watch you grow your wings
I must admit I felt resented
I knew you were bound to leave and leave me watching in a seat
See at this time I still had an ego
Didn't let me see a future without you my full potential
Pretty lady you got me thinking I'm going to die alone
Had a chance to get you back I had you on my phone
I knew that it was over 'fore I got my point across
I tried to take it back but you said what I do now didn't matter
Tried to hold you there explain where I was coming from
Nearly four months later I don't think I got it
I was egotistical, self indulging, selfish
Thinking you deserved the world because I never needed something from it
Never going gonna meet another girl that loved me like you
I got some of these lives on me, on me
And they're never gonna leave
But I have to turn another leaf
Least I know I'm human living with my misery
Contemplating whether or not this life is really it for me
That was really it for me
Now I sleep in front of stone
With every passing second, the closest to me will defend without a second thought
With every hanging necklace, you remember what I meant when I refused to take it off
With every single breath, everything that I regret don't show up with a knock
That I become a man, I see you with a new perspective cause I'm not enough
