Weathered

A vision of a memory
Will never be enough to set me free
Of emotions I suspend in time
And still I try

I try to wipe your taste out my mouth, I can't get it out
With soulless lips I don't care about
But no matter what I do, I can't shake you away
Wish you were there, I don't think you care
You said it once, "Life just isn't fair"
But it seems alright for you, I wish I could say the same

I'm breaking, I'm breaking, I'll suffer in the end
It's nothing, it's nothing, I tell myself again

It doesn't quite add up in my mind
That I was the only one who tried
To find the will to compromise
I guess I should have realized
That I wasn't worth it in the end
If you really cared you wouldn't have left
You broke before you bent

I think of all the times that we had before they went bad
And now you're gone I don't understand
How suddenly it changed, it reminds me everyday
That sacrifice is a one-way street
I did my part thinking you would meet me halfway
Now there's nothing left to say

I'm breaking, I'm breaking I'll suffer in the end
It's nothing, it's nothing, I tell myself again
How hopeless could I have been to think that you would stay?
My pleading, my grieving have left my soul to decay

I'm left to wonder how
How you could leave me here to die
I'm safely stranded now
To find a truth in all the lies
With love left to give, I let hatred win
Hoping someday I will be at peace again

I'll take it as a lesson learned
That the hottest spark will leave the deepest burn
They say it helps to dole your trust
But I know it's not enough

I'm breaking, I'm breaking I'll suffer in the end
It's nothing, it's nothing, I tell myself again
How hopeless could I have been to think that you would stay?
My pleading, my grieving have left my soul to decay

I'm breaking, I'm breaking
It's nothing, it's nothing
How hopeless could I have been to think that you would stay?
My pleading, my grieving have left all my love to wash away
