Sustenance

Lost faith in things you say
Festering in an empty space
Can I unlearn my mistakes
If I can't hate myself in front of you?

When all you do is take my sorrow for excuses
And I can't profess the pain

I understand why you hate me
Ignoring the calls while you're walking 'round your room
It's a matter of sustenance
For the emptiness inside of you

I'll come to
But I'll never step inside the lines you drew

You talk of how I'm jaded
And I just push you away
Tell me what more can I say
If I can't hate myself in front of you

When all you do is take my sorrow for excuses
And I can't profess the pain

I fight in my own way
You go with your gut
On your throne
With the trust that you're bleeding

The feeling aside
From the cut
Of the bones that you break
Is a means of relieving

I understand why you hate me
Ignoring the calls while you're walking 'round your room
It's a matter of sustenance
For the emptiness inside of you

I'll come to
But I'll never step inside the lines you drew

You call it remorse, but
The message you gave is deflecting the blame
Trying to pull me in

I never liked you
It was love from the start
Yeah, you tore me apart

You wouldn't listen
You knew I was sick but drove me up the wall
There's no fix when you just wait for me to fall

I understand why you hate me
Ignoring the calls while you're walking 'round your room
It's a matter of sustenance
For the emptiness inside of you
