Same old stories once again

You’re trying to pretend that everything is alright

The fact is nothing is okay

But that’s something I can’t say

I just have to say “I’m fine”

Truth be told, the words you’ve said

Are always stuck inside my head

But that’s just something you don’t understand

I fear your voice as it tells me 

“We both know you’ll never leave”

And I can’t fight back, or you’ll hurt me again

Well I’m sorry if I’m not what you wanted,

But I still exist

Sometimes, I just wish I didn’t love you

Because that would make it easier to leave

I waste so much time just thinking of you

The stress makes it hard for me to breathe

I know you’re never going to change

You haven’t so far

I know you think that it’s okay

To tear me apart

I know if I don’t leave, I will be left with a broken heart

Because it is me who is and will always be

In The Dark
