Love Kills

All I want to do is run away
Something keeps pulling me to stay 
That something always was you
But now you're with someone new
With nothing left, I am done 
Just pull the trigger on this gun 

The way you used to hold my hand
Without you, I can no longer stand 
The love I thought I saw in your eyes
It turns out everything was just a lie
I was fooled with what I thought was love
This life I want to get rid of

The pain now it worst then before 
I threw away the life I used to adore
Running through me is the feeling of dread 
I never really wanted to be dead 
I pulled the trigger too late to see
That there's more to life then you and me
