Leave Me To Die

She left me there to die My chest hurts, I'm empty She ran off with my heart Not the first time, I got plenty I crawl back into your arms For the first time in over a year How did you love again? There is so much that I fear Its now 6am I'm waiting for the world to wake I've got to warn them all And tell them what's at stake I'm reaching for the moon I'll be there someday soon This love is ripping me, ripping me apart Now hate is gripping me, gripping me, I start To make my way to the fork in the road And I dont know where to go Find refuge at the bar I'm drowning in sorrow So long to sober days There is no tomorrow A stranger in my house Who are you? What do you want from me? Reflection in the mirror Used to be me, my past haunts me Just leave me alone To the darkness of my room My body turns to dust Sweep me up with the broom Just wasting in the bed I wonder if I'm dead This love is ripping me, ripping me apart Now hate is gripping me, gripping me, I start To make my way to the fork in the road And I dont know where to go I thought I was stronger, but lately I just cant take it Oh noo, just leave me to die If God says he needs me just tell Him that I cant make it Don't save me, just leave me to die
