Degradation Of Our Love

I remember the day you lied
That false hope you instilled inside of me
I remember thinking I understood why
Neither of us was wired to reality

Your eyes were so cold that day
I thought I could ignore it
You wanted to speak but could not say
For fear life would end like this

Your body was leaving
The heart was crying
You left me here believing
Now my heart is dying
We were both so blind
So you instilled me, hope
That candle in my heart, you made it mine
Day by day, is losing its glow

So I cut out my heart
To let the love spill out
I’ll peel off my skin
To forget your touch
Scrape up my nails
To dig you up from under me
And I’ll cut out my eyes
To erase all the memories
