Eve of No More

Raw, like the skin’s been ripped off me Crawling, just keep scrapping my knees Bottoms of bottles just keep staring back to see Who’s the girl who cut her smile trying to break free Stab me with needles, I’ll relish you pricking me I’ll lose my mind from fear, instead of looming insanity You must have blocked yourself from me But you’re still watching me secretly I don’t know when to cut the line When does obsessive turn to obscene I’m tracking, like I’m hunting for a feast Trailing from a scent that maybe you just can’t see clearly Someone help me give up Cause you’ll be the death of me It wasn’t in the contract that you’d disregard what’s meant to be Are you that heartless, that you can just leave me hanging Maybe I welcome the abuse and you savor breaking me I can’t seem to stop myself from coveting nothing I want to torture you for the prospective possibility After distancing yourself and pretending there was no opportunity Show you the sun sets only when you sleep I toss my life like confetti and you cant’ even respond to me Tiny army of soldiers are just fighting inside to keep Any semblance of chance from being thrown on the street Lay down the cards like you slay me in your sheets Countdown the scars while you do bad things to me Holier than heaven when you take a piece of me Going to start a whole rebellion to have you put that on repeat
