Torn Down

The breath of you

Is burning through the skin

And all you do

Is lingering within

You have become

The drug that makes me weak

You're just too numb

To chance my honesty

Is truth too much to bare?

Does the past make you afraid?

In a perfect world you're there

To make things okay

You tore me down then walked away

And could you see it's killing me?

So hard I try to hide my cries

And could you see it's killing me?

I can't pretend

Perfections not in me

I should have guessed

You wanted to believe

The words I said

You threw them all away

You tore me down then walked away

And could you see it's killing me?

So hard I try to hide my cries

And could you see it's killing me?

I'm holding on

You can't be gone

The thought of it is terrifying

I'm all alone

These wretched walls

Reminding me that we can't be

You tore me down then walked away

And could you see it's killing me?

So hard I try to hide my cries

And could you see it's killing me?
