I won't lie and say my heart escaped without a mark.
It's splintered and broken, bruised beyond repair.
Killed by accusing fingers and rock hard words.
Wanting only to not exist anymore, to make it all go away.
I've forgotten the melody of life.
Somehow I got lost along the way.
Forgotten your splendid kisses on my mind.
They always felt so warm even when the flame flickered and died away.
And now the darkness is screaming at me to come home.
Tempting me with false promises of lost chances.
Stroking me with fake love and a knife to my throat.
My path to self destruction is lit with the glow of survival.
But I been there before, letting myself bleed down the drain.
I've forgotten the melody of life.
Somewhere I stumbled along the way.
Forgotten your musical laughter, your beautiful smile.
Even if it was just in my mind, I could see you just the same.
And now the darkness is screaming at me to come home.
Blanketing me with the guilt of the past.
Swallowing up the last of me, my last breath.
The gun was never in my hands, it wasn't me that pulled the trigger.
My suicide was someone else's choice.
But there you were, waiting for me as my Angel.
Come to guide me through the dance.
My very own Angel, to bandage my heart.
Wanting only to exist again and to face another day.
