The clouds were orange when I was walking to my comfort place
Will never be able to explain why, but I felt like slowing down the pace
Even felt like taking a whole different way
I saw our last bridges burn down yesterday
The moon was on fire as I was drowning in your oceans
Sucked out every spark and belief, how will I handle my emotions?
You found the worst possible way a boy could ever betray a girl
Now I hate this street and this city, you make me want to leave this world
Beating away the pain I tried not to cry in a crowded room
I am exhausted from the things that once made me feel consumed
The sweat and the pain could never compare to the damage made inside
I’m just waiting to run into my bathroom, so that all of my tears can hide
Soap can’t wash away the marks you left on my aching soul
My heart is frozen and on fire, can’t tell whether my skin is hot or cold
Your heart is a cheater, your heart is a liar
And my heart’s getting weaker, though my heart is on fire
How sad that you forgot I look good when crying
And even sadder, I love to laugh while I’m dying
You held my body like you never wanted to lose me
I hate your car and how your ignorance seduced me
Thank you for killing my last breathing butterfly
Little did you know its last wish was to die
