Purgatory (The Apologia Prelude)

Can I be vulnerable real quick
I find I'm always drawn to pain in hopes I'll find love
Sometimes, I feel like I'm chained to hopeless destiny
Like I've been cursed from the stars above

Long ago, I was approached by the phantom
And dove into what would become my darkest hour
Now, I have chosen a path intended to free me from the darkest of crevices
And propel me to the brightest of stars; the saga begins

When will I forget about you and your lies
As I replay those nights
Slowly losing my mind
I just wonder sometimes
Why do I think about you, girl
Why do I feel so empty inside

My mind repressed those nights
Haunted by all your words
You loved me out of spite
You never loved me, girl
Back in and out my life
When you and him wasn't right, damn
Tell me why, oh why would I still try

In the dimness of the night
I'd slip away to the moonlit beaches
And as I gazed upon the starry night
I'd be searching for you
I'd be searching for you

Why did I try to hold onto your lies
All those days and those nights
When I dried off my eyes
I would wonder sometimes
Why would I think about you, girl
Why would I feel so empty inside

Why, oh why do I think 'bout you
Why, oh why can't I
Why do I form toxic 'tachments
Wishing they'd turn right

One day, I'll let go your memories and your lies
All your curses, your guise
When you cursed me those nights
I would wonder sometimes
Why would I think about you, girl
Why would I still try to be your world

Do you remember those times
Do you remember those nights; 'cause I do
Do you remember that time
Do you remember why you would fail to move on
Do you remember those times
Do you remember those nights; yes, I do
Yes, I remember those times
But I don't remember why

Why did I end up like this
Why do I endure suffering to find love
