Let Down

the thought in my mind that reminds me of you
is the same thought that makes death true

i let you inside my mind and i wish i could put time in rewind
cause you let me down, you let me fall to the ground

i failed on my part to protect my heart
and to this day it still bleeds

i'll remember you forever to come 
cause you let me down
like everyone else you dropped me on the ground

i have hatred for you, a real special kind
the kind that develops a killers mind

so when you're dead please don't blame me
you did this to yourself i hope you see

i loved you once and tried to continue
but you don't have love, you don't have it in you

i would like to think i'm all grown up
but the day i met you i ran out of luck
so i'm stuck here in this state of mind i can't fast forward or rewind
