Follow This Note to the Letter

Branded at birth with the sins of my father
You tie me to a chair
Tempt me with sugar coated lies from candy coated lips
The world has turned its back on me, but not you
The crimson vision creeps over me again
I stare into your eyes; yes, full of passion
The ringing of the church bells devour our souls
Kiss me
Punish me
I’m not sorry

When both our hearts collide
There’s a place for us somewhere
A permanent solution to a temporary problem
But what I did, I did for love
So pull the fucking trigger already
Not such a sweet thing to do I know
But follow me
I found the stranger inside

And you know your closets were made for skeletons
So take this razor and sign your name across my wrists
Then everyone will know who left me like this
Hold me close and ever let go
For I am the martyr of self-inflicted wounds
If you’d just stand still
And stab me in the back again
At least you notice me
Everyone will hurt you but I promise
I’m worth the pain
It’s too late to save me, this is my last breath
Speak or forever bite your lip

You are my fatal attraction
She screams in silence
The sound of it rapes like betrayal
I am tainted I know
Please steal my breath away
I grew up wishing on a star now here you are
I wrote you a letter today

Dear heart I met the one today, prepare to shatter
Sincerely yours,
Your greatest fear

“I’m missing your heart, when did it break
And when did your tears begin to look fake?”

You were my lesson I had to learn
And now I can’t wake up from this
My dreams are darker than you can imagine
And my blood is as thick as our love is strong
Then I realized
You’re never as happy as when you’re crushing my hope
You break my heart and I rips yours out
Don’t cry it’s just another lie

Everything I learned about breaking hearts I learned from you.
