2 much tears in my eyes

I’ve shed these awful million tears
I and you can smile a thousand times to get over it, just us 2
I’ve said too much over the years
I understand the miles I tread for you to give you an outlet or two

I’m dead inside due to regret and thoughts of death…yes, I’ve tried…
I can’t take back my wasted words anymore
I’ve bled through these poetic lines and now, I want to hide my broken pride
Can’t take back my mania-like mindset to the core

I’m not going to give up trying
I’ve shed too much tears in my eyes
I’m not going to listen to your lying
You’ve said too many truths and bittersweet lies
You’ve made my bed and you sleep in it now
Somehow, I’ll not break His vivacious, vital vow
Dread instead takes over me…
It won’t let me be free as can be
I’m sorry, 
I wept these tears of shame
Honestly,
I’m not to blame, not to blame

Temporary turbulence got me caught in chains
I’m captive as a bird in the cage of stains
Tribulation taunts me in every single possible way
Captivity won’t let me be set free today

I’m dead inside due to regret and thoughts of suicide once more
I can’t take back my wasted words anymore
I’ve bled through these poetic lines and now, I want to hide to the core
Can’t take back my mania-like mindset to the core, but there’s hope in store

I’ve shed too much tears in my eyes
I and you said too many truths and bittersweet lies
We’ve made our bed and we sleep in it now
Somehow, I’ll not break His vital vow
Dread instead takes over me…
It won’t let me be free as can be
Dread instead takes over me…
It won’t let me be free as can be
I’m sorry, 
I wept these tears of shame
Honestly,
I’m not to blame, not to blame

Built-up tension gives me apprehension
Can’t stand the sheer frustration in between
Fed-up with you and your wicked decision
Can’t understand the confusion that I’ve seen

I’m dead inside due to regret and I’m grief-strickenly crucified
I can’t take back my wasted words anymore
I’ve bled through these poetic lines and now, I want to simply hide
Can’t take back my mania-like mindset to the core

I’ve shed too much tears in my eyes
I’ve said too many truths and bittersweet lies
I’ve made my bed and I sleep in it now
Somehow, I’ll not break His vivacious, vital vow
Dread instead takes over me…
It won’t let me be free as can be
I’m sorry, 
I wept these tears of shame
Honestly,
I’m not to blame, not to blame

It’s too good to be true
Our love reduced to rue
Out of the damn blue,
I see you go through
So much trials and torment
I kneel down in utter lament
I’m sorry for my resentment
Guilt overflows inside me with revilement and bewilderment

I’m dead inside due to regret and muses that are rivers so wide
I can’t take back my wasted words anymore
I’ve bled through these poetic lines and now, I want to truly hide
I really can’t take back my mania-like mindset to the core

I’ve shed too much tears in my eyes
I’ve said too many truths and bittersweet lies
I’ve made my bed and I sleep in it now
Somehow, I’ll not break His vivacious, vital vow
Dread instead takes over me…
It won’t let me be free as can be
I’m sorry, 
I wept these tears of shame
Honestly,
I’m not to blame, not to blame

It won’t let me be free as can be
I’m sorry, 
There’s too much tears in my eyes
I wept these tears of shame in appall
Honestly,
I can’t help but hello your goodbyes
I’m not to blame, not to blame at all
