Signs Of Betrayal
"Torn Down"

The breath of you
is burning through the skin
And all you do
is lingering within
You have become
the drug that makes me weak
You’re just too numb
to chance my honesty

Is truth too much to bare?
Does the past make you afraid?
In a perfect world you’re there
To make things okay
You tore me down then walked away
and could you see it’s killing me?
So hard I try to hide my cries
And could you see it’s killing me?

I can’t pretend
perfections not in me
I should have guessed
you wanted to believe
the words I said
you threw them all away

I’m holding on
You can’t be gone
The thought of it is terrifying
I’m all alone
These wretched walls
Reminding me that we can’t be
