Taste of freedom


Give me hope and don’t feed me a lie,

Why can’t you look me in the eyes?

What is honesty, when you're not on my side? 

 

Can’t hold back. 

It’s all come to light

I can see it all,

With brand new eyes.

 

I was never enough for you.

All the pain I held it inside, 

Could've cut me open…

I don’t know how I made it out alive.

 

I gave and gave,

Until I had nothing left.

Reaching out for you

was it worth something? 

Worth everything you're losing? 

 

Destruction and beauty 

 

You tried to destroy, 

what little was left of me.

What you didn't know was… 

my demons learned to survive. 

 

Now that the tables have turned, 

What I forgot to mention…

Was karma a BITCH with good intentions.

 

I really want the best for you, But I hope I never see your face…

 You can rot in hell, 

For freedom is all I taste.
