Salty Trails Into Eternity

I can feel the tears spring into my eyes
And I can see you about to ask why
And I wish you wouldn’t cause
I know it’ll be my undoing

And as the tears leave my eyes
I can’t help but wonder why
You have this affect on me
The affect that makes me wanna

Scream till I can scream no more
Push myself to my limits
Stare death right in the face
And hope it meets me half way there
Even though I’m scared

And as you get up to follow my exit
The words leave my mouth before
I get the chance to stop them
‘Just fuck off would ya’

I don’t need to look back to know
You ignored every word said and every gesture shown
And as much as I don’t want to
I really wish you had listened so I don’t have to

Scream till I can scream no more
Push myself to my limits
Stare death right in the face
And hope it meets me half way there
Even though I’m scared

And as the very last word leaves my lips
I immediately regret every single syllable
And I can’t help but to truly finish
With a ‘see my point now’

So as the tears fill your eyes
Erasing any chance of a why
I’ll turn around and walk away
So you’ll never have to hear me

Scream till I can scream no more
Push myself to my limits
Stare death right in the face
And hope it meets me half way there
Even though I’m scared

And I’ll never have to hear you do the same
