Torn

You dangle yourself in the blurred light of your room
Knowing that I'll succumb again
Slurred nothings spread and tingle down your spine
And your eyes are spinning like my head
You say you like the release
But I'm afraid I've cut too deep
I know I should probably leave
But I'll give in to your silent pleas
I move back and forth across the board
Until you're torn to pieces

I slip off your lace and cold skin pours out
Revealing marks under lock and key
How many nights have we put on this charade?
It looks like you've been keeping tally
You say you like the release
But I'm afraid I've cut too deep
I know I should probably leave
But I'll give in to your silent pleas
I move back and forth across the board
Until you're torn to pieces
I can only face you with a clouded mind
Cause I can't bear to see the scars I've left behind
Etched in your skin
The heat dies down and your words grow so cold
But your eyes deceive your mouth
I bang my knee as I stumble down your stairs
Although it hurts I can't find a bruise
You say you like the release
But I'm afraid I've cut too deep
I know I should probably leave
But I'll give in to your silent pleas, please
I move back and forth across the board
Until you're torn to pieces
I move back and forth
Back and forth
Back and forth
Back and forth
I'll move back
I could only face you with a clouded mind
Until you're torn to pieces
(I'll move back and forth)
(Back and forth)
(Back and forth)
(Back and forth)
(I'll move back and forth)
(Back and forth)
(Back and forth)
(Back and forth)
(I'll move back and forth)
(Back and forth)
(Back and forth)
(Back and forth)
(I'll move back)
