Nothing Else Matters

my mind goes blank 
			my heart stops beating 
			my body goes numb
			system overloading
			body is over heating
			from these texts i am reading 
			from all these guys
			and all these lies 
			you tell me one thing
			and you tell them another 
			all the lies your telling your mother 
			on how I'm doing this and that 
			and how I'm treating you like crap 
			you wanna try and find my heart 
			heres a map
			try finding all the pieces 
			good luck with that
			cause Ive tried
			i know you agree
			that we arnt how we use to be
			why do you do what you do to me 
			do me a favor and set my soul free
			i want to feel like a bird 
			soaring through the wind
			not a care in the world 
			we use to be tight 
			but now all we do is fight 
			cant handle the stress
			soak me in gas
			whose got the light 
			its something i must do 
			so i think i  just might 
			then call it a night 
			closing my eyes
			i can already see the light
			I'm so use to the pain 
			i pretend its a game 
			where i always loose 
			its always the same 
			i wish u were mine 
			but your not 
			so ill pretend that I'm fine 
			i cheated once 
			you cheated nine 
			you shattered my heart
			you broken my spine 
			no longer to stand
			don't have much time
			say what you gotta say
			cause i don't think Ima make it through the day 
			after you watch me die 
			then u can just run away 
			so then i can haunt you
			where the places you stay
			move on with your life
			no longer my soul mate
			no longer my wife
			no more ring on your finger
			no more wedding
			or wedding singer
			you are set free
			although 
			i must go
			don't think of me as gone
			just think of me as 6 feet below
			and if you wanna see me
			look at the stars 
			look for that glow
			that is me
                        with two middle fingers
                        saying hello
