Charades & Mimicry

The cold's a pensive reminiscence of a world that was ours
A time where we would hide away in places no one would find
When your light won't shine at all, I found it wasn't meant for me
By the way he makes you smile, it's clear I have to disappear

I found that life could be a prison, after all we have seen
Hell has a cold flirtatious silence once you lived through the grief
If I could go back I'd find a way for your words to stop my bleeding
If you condescend here
You'll burn the need for a last chance to capture me

And now I'll hide in your mind, in hopes that you'll never find me
'Cause every time that you do, I fear one day you'll despise me

I think I let you down, when I started to bleed
I hated the ending, I still can't believe
I think I let you down, when you drifted from me
I lived in the fear that I wasn't enough
'Cause I wasn't enough

And now I'll hide in your mind, in hopes that you'll never find me
'Cause every time that you do, I fear one day you'll despise me
A story having no end's a story void of a hero
So never visit the dead 'cause they will never want you to leave
'Cause we will never want you to leave

I know I let you down, I hope he learns from me
'Cause in ruin I found you, in ruin I'll stay
At the edge of the end, where old friends make amends
I'll lay in my grave 'till I learn to forget
'till I learn to forget
I don't want to forget
And I never should have hurt myself
And it seems we're at the end now

And I will hide in your mind, in hopes that you'll never find me
I'm fine with dying today, I hope you'll make it without me
Promise you'll make it without me?
