I burn my tormented eyes out
there’s nothing left I’d like to see
all these tragic love songs
all this empty agony
this pain that I’ve been handed
slowly and surely within me grows
I can no longer keep it hidden
it bleeds me out
every time I cry
it vaguely starts to show
light this gateway of mine on fire
and let the ashes singe my cheek
I no longer wish to exist here
in this selfish reality
where a lie is no more a lie
than it is the truth
my flames die out inside me
for I’ve grown too weak
