Sword of Damocles

I waste my words on someone who doesn't care
I don't know why
I hate that I try so damn hard
Twelve hours away
Old mem'ries are warped, I wait
For something to change
As if I could pray it into being okay
Like it's all okay

Oh I'd rather you be mean than just give me nothing at all
Silence isn't peace, this mind palace threatens to fall

You're the Sword of Damocles
Keep hangin' over me
I wish I could say
I don't care if you stay
But you've got this hold on me
It's the pit of lunacy
I'm begging the king
Don't cut through the string
Just let me be free

Secrets stain your lips a cherry red
I guess I'll never know why you left
You've got me thinkin' I'm the one to blame
Does that make you feel like it's okay

You're the sword of Damocles
Keep hangin' over me
I wish I could say
I don't care if you stay
But you've got this hold on me
It's the pit of lunacy
I'm begging the king
Don't cut through the string
Just let me be free

I'm begging the king
Don't cut through the string
Just let me be free
