lyrics

I wake up at 2.30 in the night without you by my side
Pour down another glass to fall back asleep
But I’m scared of the nightmares that I have nearly every night
For the last 26 days

Although the pain is burning a whole into my stomach
I admit that I somehow crave for that bitter sweet taste
It remembers every single kiss of yours
But it draws circles on the back of my hands

So, I hide them inside my pockets hoping you won’t notice
But the blood under my fingernails stains blue into dark red
I grit my teeth cause I can’t simply escape hell
So I’m pulling myself through the dirt day by day and night by night

Drowning in my own mind, convulsing with every breath
I tear myself into pieces to keep the light alive

As you left I pulled out tooth by tooth
cause my words couldn’t make you stay
I don’t deserve the soft skin of your lips
but neither I do deserve the hell inside my head
As your lips are too afraid to speak your eyes are crying the truth
And I can feel my bones cracking under the weight of the world crashing down on me

The world turns its back at me and you watch me fall apart
