Nirvana

I've been your prisoner for far too long
Trapped in a chamber of hearts that's gotten cold
I could have written a novel for the way that I fell for you
But I cursed your name and tore the pages

Burn it down, and ignite the flames
Rinse my hands and bleach the stains

It gives me such relief that I am not permanently your slave
A pawn inside your game
I cut my own damn strings and now I'm free
Free to live the dream and be all I can be

I knew it all along
Who you admired, when you would go
The weathered lies of my lover
Your skin is like fire on my soul

She was...
Lust, anger, gluttony, greed, pride, and sloth
She envies all because her soul is lost
I'll cut you off, but keep the cancer on my fucking lungs
The kiss of death is worth more than the lies that roll off your tongue

It must be hard keeping up with all the lies you say
It must be hard keeping up with all the lies you say

It gives me such relief that I am not permanently your slave
A pawn inside your game
I cut my own damn strings and now I'm free
Free to live the dream and be all I can be
Nirvana, finally
