Stay away tonight.
Turn off your phone
and pretend that I dont exist.
Erase these memories from your life
and act completely oblivious.
You wanted every inch of me
Something that I just couldn't give.
Now these photographs are ripped in two.
I kept them to remind me.
That this year has gone, and so have you.
Now I'm breathing on my own.
Without your lungs to stay afloat.
Hide away tonight.
I gave you the stars
But you brought down the sky.
Then you took your share, and left me to die.
And there amidst those blackend skies.
You've destroyed something beautiful tonight.
I'm better off now that I'm shattered and broken.
This is the last time I will be torn open.
I will not be broken.
So leave me in this place,
I would rather die here all alone.
Than spend time wondering about tomorrow.
I'm finally breathing on my own.
