But You Don't See Past The Tears

There’s no chorus tonight your vocal chords ripped and tore
I came here wanting death and left with nothing more
Your hands are cold and shiver, your breath as warm as fire
Your eyes they hide the shame in you, your one and only desire

I fled your company more for my sake than for your’s
My selfish act of ignorance left me dying on the floor
As you run your hand across my face I smell decaying love
A simple gesture oh so sweet is what I was thinking of

But as your eyes meet mine and understanding passes way
You realise all I wanted was for you to decide to finally stay
If life was only easy and if only I wasn’t insane
If only all we felt was happiness instead of suffering and pain

This blend of fear and passion lays hidden from the world
In a sad attempt to come across as an anxious little girl
So let the guitar riffs shred and the drum beats pound
Let the bassist boom and the vocalist make a beautiful sound

Confusion fills your hearts as this music fills your brains
It’s all that runs through me, even the blood in my veins
Hold back your tears and stand up brave and tall
Can’t you see that eventually everyone all must fall
