lyrics

///LYRICS///
Almost bailed out on our blind date
Again caged in this mentality
Hesitant to share my tormented life
But still wearing my good tie

Driving up your street
Helpless and obsolete
Forced to delve back into reality

You see, I've been down this road before
3 months sober, but is this ever over
Constricted by this dead weight
Turned myself into a masquerade

Forced to be a playwright
A different face, one for every night

Today I'll wear my confident face
While my ribs concave, and I try to look brave
Part of me hopes that you won't buy it
Another side hopes that you're delighted

Just a dead man walking into the grave
Nothing hoped for nothing gained
Just a dead man walking into the grave

Half my life already cashed in
That desperate lunatic friend
But tonight altered my view
The beautiful side of me

My perfect fantasy
All I could see was you
Untangled my heart strings and tuned me
Saw past the facade that withdrew me

Braided into a sweet melody
Covering my scars completely
Opened my eyes
Both been drawing outside the lines

Only in the same pattern
First time in a long time
Stumbled across someone that matters

Today I'll wear my confident face
While my ribs concave, and I try to look brave
Part of me hopes that you won't buy
Another side hopes you're delighted

Just a dead man walking into the grave
Nothing hoped for nothing gained
Just a dead man walking into the grave

Left on a hunch
Sped to your house, entry unlatched
Trying to remain blind to the blatant signs
House thrashed unlike before

Pacing in front of the final door
Turned the knob, held my breath
And I knew
There you hang

Dress you wore bloodstained
Slitted wrists, so much pain
And there you hang
And there you hang

Your beautiful face, lacerations on your nape
Yet you're still the most beautiful girl I've ever seen
I drug you down, and held you close
Blood spilling down the front of my coat
Wept for the first time in years

Realizing all my fears
A moment too late
An after thought
I never said I love you

I loved you
