Falling

You kept me alive
When I was hanging by a thread.
But nowe you're killing me inside
And I wish I was dead.
I want to send you away,
Far out of my sight,
But you've got a hold on me
Much too strong to fight.
I know you're bad for me,
You'll only make thing worse.
You make me feel so good,
But every touch is a curse.
If I give you a chance,
I know you'll tear out my heart.
What have I done?
When did this madness start?
I've tried to tell you,
But you silence me with a kiss.
This is the first time
I've ever felt like this.
