2 AM - My city lights burn bright as day
catching the flattering silhouettes of the tired and the damned
Here i am tapped clean out of respect
and walking waist deep in ruin
If this is need then i never wanted you
Your love was paralysing
This is a monument to our everything
before our forever comes crashing
I loved you



And I cannot stop shaking because you cannot stop shaking
and these chords they are trembling because your words they are bleeding
And these holes in my hands are for you, just for you
She called out to her maker to now be her savior
My love, these holes in my hands are for you, just for you



she is at the end chasing her own fading light
running from her shadow in the name of living
searched for worth in the lust of men
paid in blood in different beds
mistaking sex for true love
they never meant a thing
her addiction brought her a world
of coward boys and of cheater girls
looking for an easy way out of being ordinary
so she boarded their sinking ship
and crossed their red needle sea
drowning truth to live her lie
that she was ordinary
in her fading shadow



you are nothing more than dying royalty
you are nothing more than a fading drama queen
your spelling errors in love letters just stole your crown
you are nothing more than late night fantasy
you are nothing more than a rehearsed tragedy
your spelling errors in love letters just killed your dream
just killed you
you are nothing more than a dim lit whore
you are nothing more than a crashing bore
in your blood paid
you chase a shadow that will fade out as pain



i'm stopping this slow death
by letters never sent
i'm killing one way romance
and its words never read
i'm leaving love's lost battles
to the vulture's need to feed
i'm leaving you
i'm leaving them
and learning to be me
heart is everything
heart is you
love is you
hell is you
loss is you
heartless
