what you've taken from me
what you've put me through
has made these brown eyes see blue
embryos from the womb of our dreams
that we conceived reside in orphanage rooms
in overslept beds fabricated
from two hearts torn in two
i can't repair the damage
love packed its bags and vanished
no soul left to sell and my starving dreams are famished
my demons just won't have it
old habits and lost baggage
will i live to tell this savage tale upon this ravaged planet?
though i hate what i've been
i can't believe you want nothing to do with me
my confessions may be late
for their own funeral awake
i should just say what i mean
i doubt these words will ever be heard
presently or in a future tense with past regrets
i should've run away and given up
so long before you'd had enough
'cause you deserved more than me
you deserve forever more than i could ever be
i'd knock on heaven's doors
you'd never rest with me or know the best of me
i wish i never was ever yours sincerely
better off without this lesser half
