Breaking The Cycle

To my former self
It seems like we met again
All those times you were with me
Was just a living hell
I thought everything would be alright
Once you were by my side
Five seconds in
And everything fades to black
I don't even remember who I am
When you're with me
Looking at me
With your soulless eyes
And your empty smile
Bringing me to my knees again
Constantly whispering in my ears
Throw it all away
Give your soul to me
Handing me the blade
Of loss and despair
All those restless nights
Laying down in exhaustion
With the scars of the past
Reopening again
And now I see
The lies within your voice
Cause I'm pushing you away
Breaking these chains
Destroying the blade
I'm not going to fade
I won't let you take my life away
No you can't stay
I said what had to be said
Healing from the heartache
And I know
Tomorrow will be okay
