Snuff

Bury all your secrets in my skin 

come away with innocence

and leave me with my sins

The air around me still feels like a cage

And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again

So if you love me, let me go

And run away before I know

My heart is just too dark to care

I can't destroy what isn't there

Deliver me into my Fate

If I'm alone I cannot hate

I don't deserve to have you

My smile was taken long ago

If I can change I hope I never know

 

I still press your letters to my lips

And cherish them in parts of me

that savor every kiss

I couldn't face a life without your light

But all of that was ripped apart

when you refused to fight

 

So save your breath, I will not hear

I think I made it very clear

You couldn't hate enough to love

Is that supposed to be enough?

I only wish you weren't my friend

Then I could hurt you in the end

I never claimed to be a Saint

My own was banished long ago

It took the Death of Hope to let you go

 

So Break Yourself Against My Stones

And Spit Your Pity In My Soul

You Never Needed Any Help

You Sold Me Out To Save Yourself

And I Won't Listen To Your Shame

You Ran Away - You're All The Same

Angels Lie To Keep Control

My Love Was Punished Long Ago

If You Still Care, Don't Ever Let Me Know

If you still care, don't ever let me know
