my words were buried at six feet deep
along with secrets i was born to keep
you were someone i wish i’d never known
you left me in a world of shadows and stone
my silence kills everything i touch
and every time it hurts so much
i can’t find a way out of this despair
with every breath, i’m choking on air
but i gotta find a way to breathe
because my heart’s full of need.
i gotta take a step back
before the world goes black
my body’s going numb
i can’t remember the world i came from
my minds a mess and i must confess
i’m afraid that i’ll never escape these chains
of broken thoughts
they’re haunting me
they’re haunting me
