Don't Love Me

Don't love me

Don't care for me

Because there's nothing I can give you

No matter how beautiful you may be

There's nothing left of me.

Don't fall for me

I won't catch you

I'm sorry this is the truth

No matter what I say

Through the days

Don't take it with grace

Because they are lies

I still want to be kind

I hope to let you down lightly

What you see is nothing but a disguise

There is no more desire left in my eyes

They're only alive for my cries

Notice that they don't light

Notice them because they cannot lie

You'll never know why

All they'll tell you is that I lost the fights of many nights

I think it's because

I gave the last bit of my love to another

Where it didn't prosper

It only withered

Put through severe weather

Without nurture

Due to my own departures

I knew my love couldn't reach any further

I thought I had so much

But it was never enough

Or it was too much

I knew I had to butcher it

So I severed it

And left it with her

My last bit of love

Forever with her

Leaving me to wander

In a limbo

With nothing left to give

Only hopeful

For a hand to grab

To take me out of this lag

But if it's not the hand that led me here

I will not adhere

I need to see her faded black fingernails

tragically paradoxical

What's made me sick will make me well

Tired of being in limbo

Let me see those black fingernails

And I'll grab ahold

For you to lead me further into hell

Let's dance together in this eternal inferno

Till our hearts melt together

Because I'm a sucker

For you

I can't ever

Imagine myself with another

No one can break this spell

There is no life left in me

I gave the last of me to you

And it will be with you forever

I don't want it to be anywhere else

I'd rather wander this world with nothing left to give
