Rip Me Apart

By Imsosickxxx


VERSE:

I, know, we, realize the end is near
I, see, the, darkness is consuming you
Con, vince, your, self the visions can’t be true
Take all these travesties and place them in your silver box

I, can’t, help, trusting in the enemy
These, vis, ions, twist the things I thought were real
Be, liev, ing, in everything that I can feel
You take these dreams and give them life with broken wings

CHORUS:

So breath the life back into this, emp-ty she-ell
Walk all over everything that I once held close to my heart
Pretend that nothing that I’ve done up til now was right
So take your painted claws and rip me apa-ar-art

VERSE:

The, bro, ken glass is just a memory
Your, screams, will, always echo in my head
And, give, life, to something close to living dead
Exact revenge on me, you’re nothing but a parasite

I, hope, you, choke your self to death one day
The, way, you, kick and scream to get your way
May, be, you’ll, cut away your flaws one day
Til then I guess I’ve got you right where, I don’t want you, to be

BRIDGE:

Take care, not to be paranoid
I loved you once, but once was just enough
You cried, when I said good bye
But when I turned my back, you cut out my heart

CHOURS:

So breath the life back into this empty she, ell
Walk all over everything that I once held close to my heart
Pretend that nothing that I’ve done up til now was right
So take your painted claws and rip me apaaaaart

We're back to the start again.
