This is the last time
I'll cry myself to sleep
Last time
I'll fake a smile
Just so you can get through the day
I won't go on like this
Can't go on like this
It's destroying me
I can't be strong for the both of us
Not any longer
Too long
It's been like this
Too long I've forced myself to be happy
Didn't you ever see
The phantoms that haunt me
I wouldn't break in front of you
But couldn't you see the stain the tears left behind
You gave up
So easily
While I fought my own demons
And took on yours
My fingers are cut and bloody
From always picking up the broken pieces
But I can't do it anymore
It's time for me to let you be
Time for you to stand up
And take action
Can't you see
You're not the only one your pain is hurting
I'm done
I'm leaving you to deal on your own
If only it was that easy
If only I could
But I never will
I'll always stow away my pain
So I can ease you of yours
So don't worry
You can always count on me
