I've been counting down the days
Till you let me pull you up.
Contemplating all the ways
To remind you of our love.
And I've been living through this hell
To remind you how I burn.
I've been counting the beats of my heart
To remind you how I yearn.
Please don't go
I don't want you to face this world.
On your own.
I've been counting the nameless graves
To remind you of our vows.
Fantasizing in the Summer rain
That you'll miss what you've been without.
And I've been sipping this glass of red
To remind myself how you taste.
I've been praying at the witching hour
For a soul that's been displaced.
Please don't go
I don't want you to face this world.
On your own.
Please don't leave
I swear I'm everything you'll ever need.
So you've put all of the blame on me
You're the one who was hiding deceit.
The propaganda you tell to yourself
Keeps your lock fastened in your self-imposed cell.
My little girl you were my Autumn leaves
I would've held your hand for eternity.
But you're always the victim cause it feels so right
You never even worked to make it through the fight.
Please don't go
I don't want you to face this world.
On your own.
Please don't leave
I swear I'm everything you'll ever need.
Sleeping at the break of day
Disconnect from a life that's gray.
Waiting for the darkness to fall
Yearning so cause I want it all.
Feeling angst I walk to that place
Calming down I feel your embrace.
I could die this is so serene
Eyes open it was just a dream.
I dance in the shadow of doubt
Cause it's you I'm living without
Tonight I want to scream your name.
I know that this world is so cold
But it's you that I need to hold
Tonight I want to share your pain
I want to share your pain.
This feeling grows from inside
Tears me up and I want to hide.
Running through the cold hard rain
Can't escape what's in my veins.
We could wait 'til the afterlife
Then I'd only pray for demise.
To taste the luxury of death
I would rest my final breath.
I dance in the shadow of doubt
Cause it's you I'm living without
Tonight I want to scream your name.
I know that this world is so cold
But it's you that I need to hold
Tonight I want to share your pain
I want to share your pain.
