It must be hard for you
trying so hard to forget
or always making yourself
remember the darkness

I know its hard for me
to see what loss has done
always making myself
pretend its nothing

My love for you is fading
like ghosts in the snow
I would love to pistol whip
your perfect made-up face
I've never held a gun
and you probably have
someone to pull their trigger
to blow your brains out.

I wanna talk to you
slow deep and hard
so you can let it all out
for someone who cares

I took off all my clothes
to show off my impurities
but who would have known
that wouldn't be enough

my itch for you is fading
like shadows in the night
I would love drink that bottle
six feet away
but you probably have
someone who holds it close
so no one else can
taste that salty water

what's its like to be you?
are you ever alone?
wanting to be something
more than we can achieve

If i told you about me
would you leave me far behind
with nothing to hold
is it better off this way?

my need for you is fading
like your hand in mine
I'd love to dream of you
another field of green
where i'm the star
of your perfect world
and everything I need
is under your clothes

Was it hard for you
to leave me sitting here
while you went off
to make something more

i know how hard
to only get a check
in the mail with your name
can be to accept

my life for you is fading
as i back away
I'd love to be on stage
right beside the one I want
to muffle the sound
with a violent kiss
and when the set is crashed
it will be my desperation

When I said to you
that this heart of mine
is nothing but yours
you shoved me aside

When you said to me
goodbye my dearie
did you ever wonder
what payback I would chose?

my heart for you is fading
like the bland comedown
to blink out of existence
I want to fight for the dream
which I will always love
the feel of yourself
against my own totality
as the leaves fall down

I don't know about you
like I thought I did
the words faded away
like clouds in the sky

I will know all about you
like I always would have
even if I am left alone
the lights will dim down

In the starlight
or the glaring moon
i'll find the reason
you wouldn't speak

under these covers
all cozy and tight
I'll find out why
you couldn't be mine
