Untitled

I want you here to hold me
In the manner of that you loved
Everything will fade
In the memories you made
I know it wasn't easy
For you or for me
-
To him my heart is far from
What once was strong, now it's destroyed
I never said right
When I knew I was wrong
Come find me a way from this
For it's you I love

Would it even matter
If I were to repair what I had broke?
It's only a turn 
In a life he has led
For lying I will condemn
Him to the pain of death

Despairing the thoughts of my once close brother
Kill or be killed came the words from his Bother
This might take a while
What I promised, this might take a while

But you wouldn't wait so long
You became impaitient
Forming a fist you swung the first
Now it's official
And other than me
I have an enemy
-
Victim of myself I bleed from self-infliction
It's only so long til I find my own way out
Wrap your hands around me
Squeeze til I cannot breathe
I hate myself for what I did
But I love her for everything she is
