Shadows

I see shadows when I close my eyes. Love feels heavy, but it’s just disguised. Heart’s been broken, I can’t even lie. Tears fall slow, while the days pass by. Cold nights keep me talking to the sky. Pain’s a drug, and I’m way too high. Every promise turns into goodbye. My reflection don’t meet my eye. I don’t trust love, it’s a loaded gun. Every shot hits, now I’m on the run. All my scars bleed under the sun. I can’t heal, so I come undone. Used to dream, now I barely sleep. Memories haunt, they cut so deep. Told myself love was mine to keep. Now it’s gone, and I just weep. Every word you spoke was a blade. Every kiss you gave slowly decayed. You left me in the mess you made. Now my trust will never be repaid. I don’t trust love, it’s a loaded gun. Every shot hits, now I’m on the run. All my scars bleed under the sun. I can’t heal, so I come undone. Toxic hearts dress like heaven’s gates. Sweetest lies come with bitter fates. I was blind, now it’s too late. Love’s a game I can’t replay. Every smile hides a hurricane. Every touch just brings me pain. Guess my soul won’t be the same. Wake up dizzy, pills on my nightstand Chasing numb, but it slips from my hands Voices whisper like they understand But they just laugh while I sink in sand Every call is another mistake Every truth feels harder to take I lost me for your sake Now my heart’s just something fake Midnight drives with the rain on glass See your ghost in the streets I pass Try to forget, but it never lasts Every memory cuts like broken glass I’m too tired to fight my head Too awake to ever play dead You took light, left me with dread Now my love’s something I’ll regret I see shadows when I close my eyes. Love feels heavy, but it’s just disguised. All my scars bleed under the sun. I can’t heal, so I come undone.
