Mr. Dead Inside

Mr. Dead Inside

YOU 
who wouldv'e known?
it would be you
that makes me feel this way
I can't believe I've gotton this far
Without knowing where I stand.

YOU
have no idea 
what goes through my mind
what pumps through these veins
what beats through my heart
on nights like these

YOU 
think you've won
think you've got me wrapped around your pretty little finger
but I suppose i should let you in on a little secret of mine...

I 
can break you in a heartbeat
leave you beaten and bruised 
but begging for more

YOU 
think you're bad
Mr. High and mighty
Mr. Kill you with one glance
but i see through you

YOU
HURT LIKE I HURT
YOU FEEL LIKE I FEEL
YOU 
HATE LIKE I HATE
YOU
CRY LIKE I CRY
but i'm not the one who hurt you

I 
shouldn't have to pay for her mistakes
I 
am not her, nor will i ever be
ONE DAY
you will realize what you have with me
and on that day

MR. DEAD INSIDE
you'll appreciate me..
