What You Don'T Realize

She does not feel, anything
Everything tastes the same 
She hates the fact that she is even real
She'll count the constellations to try and forget her name 
So with each of their little strife, she wants more and more
To end her life
Break free from that cold with one stroke of a knife
She firmly believes that she cannot be saved 
There is only one person who was able to convince her to put down the blade for good
And they're trying to tear him away

YOU will never take him away from me
YOU cannot make him stay away from me 
YOU cannot stop what is suppose to be 
I will tear you to shreds if you try anything..

Don't even try to take him away 

See, I'm such an old, wicked woman
Trapped behind these youthful features 
I may not look just like a monster
But I can rip you to pieces 
My perseverance is brutal 
You are just not that strong
You pointed your fingers, making assumptions
And that is where you went wrong

YOU will never take him away from me 
YOU cannot stop what is supposed to be
I will tear you to shreds and spit out the pieces if you try..
To take him away 

You must face it now, he is all grown up
That boy always puts me first, even when I hate it 
I am not a child, like you might have thought 
I am so much more
I will fight for him
Until my heart lay still beating on the floor

YOU will never take him away from me
