Shake Me

By GirlintheBox

Console all my fears with the touch of your hand
Search for the truth in my eyes
And when I'm right where you want me
Drown me in your ocean of lies

Then when I fight to swim to the surface
Be the current that wont let me go
Till all I breathe in is your air of deceit
And becomes the only air that I know

And when, in my stupor, I give you my heart
Shatter all of my hopes and my dreams
Take my very reason to live
And rip it apart at the seams

So make me
Shake me
Batter me
Break me

Give me all the more reason to eternally
Hate me
