Don't leave me alone

Abandonment issues

That's what my therapist said

Trust issues

That's what I got in my head

And I've told you countless times

My instinct's the one that primes

Your lies, the crimes

That make the word love rhyme

With pain, and sometimes,

With madness at nightime

And on the tears you sprinkle some thyme

Look me dead in the eye, spitting on what could be a lifetime

Of happiness's paradigm

Just read between the lines

Just read between the lines

Am I not enough for you?

Haven't you got the breakthrough

You claimed you needed too?

What the hell have we come to,

What the hell did we have to get through?

Oh hell, what I'd do to undo

All the shit we managed to get used to

How many times we've been untrue

Please, just say something, you cold-hearted statue

With your eyes of prussian blue

As we once sang, I'm finally facing my Waterloo

Come on, wake up, enjoy the view

Of me crying and trying to pull through

The mess of my emotional distress

I miss the old you, I must confess

I've been trying so hard to repress

These overwhelming waves of sadness

I'd even say, completely suppress

These overwhelming waves of sadness

While you stare, in all of your unkindness

Come on, open your eyes, express

All of the reproaches, the excess

Of everything I do, and caress

My cheek like you once used to do

Just read between the lines

Just read between the lines

Hear my only prayer

'Cause I'm no player.
