So Far Away
November 13, 2013
Cigarette smoke burns my throat,
with every sharp drag,
this is all for you,
because of you.
I’ve found that empty bottles
cannot save my life,
and this bottle beside me,
is just as empty as me.
Look at what you've done to me,
I'm a disgrace,
compared to my former self,
all because of you.
You're there,
I'm here,
I guess that's too much
for you to handle, love.
I still love you,
I still hate you,
I'm still changing,
because of you.
