On the floor
Too scared to let go
But not strong enough to keep hold
I know that this is killing me
But the price for saving myself
Is it worth your demise
Trying to find the line where selfishness and self-respect divide

There's a temporary heaven
If I want it
But next week it will be gone
So 7 days of satisfaction
For another 7 days of shit
It would be so much easier
If you could just understand this

I know you love me
and I hope you know I tried
But if you can't see the knife you're twisting in me
How could you ever expect this to end

I never left you
You left me
every time you chose her
you broke me

you broke me

Here's a toast to vulnerability
Cheers for abused trust
You could say love is all-consuming
And it just consumed me
The fire that consumes me
