Blind

I’m done with broken prayers
Bruised knees only washed with tears
I’m sick of broken smiles
You think this is all about you
You’re not the only one
I promise you, it’s all been done
I’m sick, I’m sick of waiting
On some lost fairytale
The prince he’s gone, he ran away
And the princess, well, she’s not really much of one
So let it go
I’m done with all the things I said

You know I’ll love you till the day I pass out bleeding
You know I’ll hate the way you lied, you’re so deceiving
You change your mind, time after time
Pick a way you want me to feel
I try and try, you’re all but mine
And I can’t believe what I’m seeing

There are two of you
And you take me different directions
This isn’t about you
It’s about him, and what I’m seeing
I know you’ll read this song, and hear it as a letter to your soul
I promise you, I’m done with it all, and this is about the one before you

You know I’ll love you till the day I pass out bleeding
You know I’ll hate the way you lied, you’re so deceiving
You change your mind, time after time
Pick a way you want me to feel
I try and try, you’re all but mine
And I can’t believe what I’m seeing

The letters you wrote, they’re the only ones I kept
The things you broke, well it’s still rotting in my chest
The messages on my phone, you still won’t leave me alone
And you know how much I hate the loneliness
You let me have the pieces, just to look at and just see
There’s no putting it together, broken down creatively

You know I’ll love you till the day I pass out bleeding
You know I’ll hate the way you lied, you’re so deceiving
You change your mind, time after time
Pick a way you want me to feel
I try and try, you’re all but mine
And I can’t believe what I’m seeing

A broken line
It means not much
Not much at all
You be the words
Poured out my mouth
With no sentence at all
The lips that kiss
They don’t mean this
And you don’t mean it all
So let it go
It’s falling out
I’m falling down now

You know I’ll love you till the day I pass out bleeding
You know I’ll hate the way you lied, you’re so deceiving
You change your mind, time after time
Pick a way you want me to feel
I try and try, you’re all but mine
And I can’t believe what I’m seeing
