Darling(The Worst Is Over)

This cold air fills my lungs.
I can see it in your eyes.
You're so fragile and weak.
Your hollow chest holds empty nothings.
You won't even fight.
Put the lies to rest.
Darling open those precious eyes.
When will you realize that I'll never leave your side.
Your heart has been broken so many times.
Your eyes like diamonds have cried so many tears.
I won't give up on you.
Darkness has surrounded your mind.
Your torn at the seams.
Life is nothing more than a bad dream to you.
If you give me one last fighting chance, I'll pull you through.
Powerless.
Blood stains your dress.
Put down your scissors.
You must learn the word forgiveness.
Open up inside.
If you give me this chance, I'll open your eyes to a new life.
I'll breathe hope into your lungs.
I know what you have been through.
Just trust me.
I won't hurt you.
If you're gonna believe in something, darling believe in me.
When everyone has left you here, look who is still standing beside you for an eternity.
You'll make it out.
Your heart has graced your sleeve.
Follow your heart and no longer grieve.
I've meant every word I've said from the start.
That'll never change.
I'll hold your hand through this all.
Can't you see the words I've engraved on this wall.
I love you.
